Can door handles be ordered stock that match the color of the car instead of the metal-looking ones?

 

no, but most any body shop could paint them

 

hey stockjock,

I'm actually from the Eastside also What color is your car? Anywayz I know a buddy taht owns a body shop that might be able to paint them for you, but I'm not sure how the material is on them so not sure how paint will stick to it.

What model and color is your Z

 

I don't own one yet, but am going to buy one in September. It will be a 2004 Touring and am leaning towards Super Black.

 

Dont get super black, I live in Bellevue and have one already..you really wanna be the same as me?!

 

Nah, I'll have a different license plate so we can be different.

 

 

I was laughing so loud that my coworkers just came by and see what's going on. You're a damn funny guy stockjock.

 

And my plate is going to read MYZTURF...just kidding, wildone_106

 

Im ordering some stuff, going to custom mold a new set of doorhandles and use a new metal powder that makes plastic look like real metal.

it even comes in bronze to match my wheels. should be pretty cool.

all sorts of colors tho, kinda neat if it works.

 

dude, you're an animal with these parts. i love it!

 

I have no problem with more Super Blacks on the east side

 

Link?

 

when i had my Z, i immediately though of either shaving off the door handles and install door poppers or convert the door handles off a different car model. Either way both doors had tobe repainted, but it would have been all worth it....never went through with the idea and ended up selling the car

 

the stuff itself is made by alumilite (www.alumilite.com) however I dont use their other materials. their stuff is good, but first off, very expensive, its made for small peices like action figures and modeling parts. they sell it in larger amounts, but I use a more industrial strength material.

but metal powder like that, Ive never seen before. its sort of a model only application I suppose, but its great, not even paint, so tho it could scratch off, it wont be flaking or anything, its molded into the plastic.

anyway, just got my new toy, a pressure pot, I can now cast at 50PSI. woooboy, Ill post pics on monday.

 

ares you are soon becoming a god

 

well I havent made anything yet. getting fustrated so many ideas, but the equipment isnt cooperating with me.

pressure pot is being a PITA. Im still workin on the lightup Z emblems. its in there now... hopefully itll work. wont know till the morning tho.
