Default turn signal shave

Anyone done this? shave off the turn signal indicator under the side mirror? I personally think it'll be a cleaner look, and plan on replacing the side mirrors with M3 Style mirrors (turning signals in em)

You want to fill in the turnsignal area and then paint it? Sounds like a waste of money.

All appearance man. I would also want to be moving those wires to the side mirror. I just find the B5s have a dated look. and that, lip spoilers, RS4 Rims and ecode headlights will bring it up do date ... in my opinion

This will be done during a car paint job by the way.. the car I'm actually serious about is a horrible colour. Possibly a bit of bondo and some TLC and we'd be good to go... no?
