I think youve said it yourself, it will ruin the scooby. Plus if you come to sell later youll no doubt struggle to shift it.

No rear handles just looks wrong.. and once your mates have flicked the child lock and shut the door and then in a couple of months the paint cracks over were the door handles were.... you'll wish you never started.
