Default Painted door handles thread!

I did some searching and found one thread from back in 2004 Most of the photo links were no longer valid. But I did find a couple lemans sunset Z pics.

I may go this route with my Nismo. Anyone who has custom painted their door handles to match their car please post in this thread. It will be useful and help other's out...

Hoping the members don't mind me posting pics of their Zs, but as good as they look I'm thinking it would be ok:

I won't post my setup in here because this is for color-MATCHED setups.

I guess not everyone actually read the first post.

Originally I was going to paint my door handles matte black but then decided to have them painted to match the car. It's okay if members want to post up their painted handles even though they don't match the car. It's cool. It will make it alot easier to find this thread when searching.

The white looks awesome!

I'm hoping someone here has a good shot of a Redline or Nagaro red Z with painted door handles to match.

If it's done right by a professional, I think they look great!!!

Thanks for all the responses so far!

Zim

Subd to this thread.

Over all, color matching the door handles really helps with the flow of the car IMO.
