Door handled

[mgbond]

What car are the door handles from. After seeing the carbon fibre covers at £69ea I wondered if you can just buy covers and then I can get it colour coded?

Mini Metro mate - yummy...



What about applying that carbon film effect that you float in a paint tray?

[mgbond]

As per my wheels. Yes as Tony did it. However it sounded like a right pain getting the handles off.

Paint them same as car colour. They look fine.

[mgbond]

Yeah but you gave to take them off and that's what I'm trying to avoid

I'd just mask up, spray primer then a couple of coats of plastic paint myself. It doesn't matter if the underneath is still Black.

Id sand it down a little bit first to get a good key

How difficult is it to get handles off, hoped it was easy once door card is off, I got some handles off eBay for a few quid but they are metal

[tonyvan]

They arnt that bad to remove,bit tricky to replace, but once youve done it once and get the hang of getting the spring to sit in place.easy peasy!!

[tonyvan]

'mmmm' looked at them,not great IMHO. stuck over originals and 70 quid plus vat each'!!!!

Tony you got a pic of your dipped handles

[tonyvan]

Not Shute if I put a pic up in my last post on carbon dipping,but they look very good,not able to post pic up at mo, In the event of one or both getting damaged, they will only cost £35 max to get redipped.

I've got to get one of my wheels re dipped as web taking off a trailer a few weeks ago managed to kirb the wheel. Plus may have also gently stroked a kirb a month back.
