shiny factory door handles?
i thought oem fd door handles were all matte black? or were there years with a clearcoat/shiny looking door handles? mine are shiny and i dont think they've been repainted. the glossy paint is even on portions of the back.
maybe brilliant black cars had these handles?

Hmmm, my 93 MB touring handles = shiny. A friend of mine has a 93 VR base and they are matte. Another has a 94 VR PEP and they are shiny. There must be a pattern to this...

could different rex's that were manufactured in different states? countries possibly have a difference in door handle paint???
that would explain how some of the same models are different paint, maybe one was manufactured in a different place!
just a thought, not even sure what states mazda had factories in...

mines matte, but now there carbon covered. i got that ebay carbon covers and I realy like it!!
but orginally they were matte
and mines a 94 touring- i think..??
its an odd car really, i have the r1 suspension, but i have all the touring options expect for rear windshield wiper. I however dont know if i had the bose or not cause when i got the car the stereo was missing and the rear hatch all the pieces were missing so i had to hunt each piece down.. lol I guess I could have a modded base or r1 heck I dunno.. I like my moonroof tho! :-)

This just makes me glad that I'm bypassing the whole thing and getting aluminum handles.
