good alterative to scratched black paint, but I think it moves the eye to it.....I like how you don't really notice the handles with the stock look. It's just personal preference.

My handles are shipped too. I like those ones better than CF.

Those would match nicely with an aircraft-type fuel door.

So is this actually the door handles or just some stick on aluminum plates?

It has to be stick-on because look @ how cheap they are. FD door handles do not cost $115 unless someone can prove me wrong. The closeup looks good but I like the way the FD's stock handles blend into the body and look more fluid to the shape.

All stick-on finishes including CF dashes (not Marks covered ones) look cheap. Plus, the door handles were integrated into the window shape to make them LESS obtrusive!!

Those look like ***. They stick out WAY too much! Why draw so much attention to your door handle?

#1 they are just stick on crap that will look even more like a$$ once you put them on yourself and they've been heat cycled.
#2 is this place just a scam ripoff of RX7store or what?
