Title: ANyone painted their door handles?
Post by: Jim_rx7 on January 25, 2009, 09:05:54 PM
Curious if anyone has had a go at painting the exterior door handles before?

Mine aren\'t in the best condition, a couple of marks etc and I was wondering they would look like if colour co-ordinated.

Also, how would they stand up to scratches etc from constant use.

Anyone done it and got any pics?? What\'s your thoughts?

Re Amemyia do coloured ones, red and blue carbon. Never seen the blue but they have the red ones on their show cars :D
