An electric drill and a std. countersink will put the screw heads wherever you want them but will also remove any plating on the striker. Note there's a LOT of room (relatively) between the door surface and the striker plate surface. Use modeling clay or multiple layers of masking tape to reassure yourself that a few thousandths of screw-head protrusion will not scratch up your door(s). Pantera bodies are NOT machined-to-perfection weldments.
