Yeah, mine are shaved. I was generally looking for an opinion on how it looked on my car.

Ahh yes I see that. I prefer them with hand pin striping myself. Then it also depends on the color.

Where they welded shut or bondo filled?

I think the painted trim and shaved badges looks awesome myself.

The holes were welded and then grinded/sanded down to be smooth. Why? Does it make a difference?

To me it does. Welding them is the proper way of doing it.
