CF Door Handles

[shizzy]

Hey everyone im new here but not to the scene of tuning.
Just a little background on myself I have tuned hondas acuras and now im on my benz.
I bought this 97 C280 from my aunt who was the original owner, so basically the car is BRAND NEW. The car has now 100,000 miles but I just took the plastic off the original mats.
Back to the point I have just ordered some carbon fiber door handles as I was tired of the black and chrome, which in my opinion is hideous. Usually if I cant stand the door handles they get shaved like Conan's face, but here I found some BEAUTIFUL real carbon fiber.
I will be installing them soon, so I will keep y'all posted.

Are they door handles or door inserts?

I definitely want to see some detailed pictures of this once installed. All four of my door handles along with the moulding above my license plate are covered in the 3m Dinoc Carbon Fiber which doesn't look too bad.

I cant wait you wont believe the price too... 100 bucks shipped!!

[shizzy]

[shizzy]

[Denlasoul]

Sweet! This would go perfectly with the concept im going on my c36

[horgantrevor]

would look good on a c36 or a sport model w202

make sure it a good fit but im not sure they would last the test of time

[shizzy]

Honestly they fit the car so well. I mean when im driving (Dallas) rich guys in brand new CL are mugging and their chicks are like WHY!? I guess you really can see the difference in the light. The carbon fiber really does shine bright in the day time and at night they look like AMG door handles (without the chrome). I just washed the car and installed black housing projectors, so I will take some pics tomorow iA.

Lets do a GB!!

+1 I wouldnt buy these CF door covers they glue or stick on over your existing ones

[horgantrevor]

they would not do my c36 as the LEDs in drives door would be covered i think

[johnnybravo]

do these door handle covers affect the central locking functionality of the car seen as the small sensors on the front door handles will also be covered?

yes they cover it

[johnnybravo]

so the only way is to paint the existing ones?

[shizzy]

It doesnt really matter to me I just love these covers. NO ONE can tell they are covers even! i keep one side of the car carbon fiber and the other side black and chrome (factory)
