How to remove gVim's fat bottom border (and resize grip)?

Solution 1
This is what I use to get rid of the resize handle in the corner. Just put this in ~/.gtkrc-2.0
style "no-resize-handle"
{
GtkWindow::resize-grip-height = 0
GtkWindow::resize-grip-width = 0
}
class "GtkWidget" style "no-resize-handle"
Solution 2
Ok so setting this in my .gtkrc-2.0
alleviates the problem:
style "vimfix" {
bg[NORMAL] = "#242424" # this matches my gvim theme 'Normal' bg color.
}
widget "vim-main-window.*GtkForm" style "vimfix"
Screenshot:
This still doesn't fix the resize triangle in the lower right.

Is there any way for gVim to look like that?
UPDATE: There is! Here's a screenshot after adding settings from Jeremy Cantrell's and my own answers:

vermin almost 13 yearsI don't think that's the issue. Even if I change the statusline, the light grey border on the bottom still remains along with the grey resize thingy.
