We're blowing out the last handles for $225 to make way for our next production run.

These are precision ceramic cast, and are dimensionally accurate down to the mm, have CNC machined/tapped mounting points, have specially designed reinforcement points to further increase rigidity, come with SS mounting hardware, our proprietary black coating which identically matches the stock plastic finish, and a detailed full installation guide. This is NOT a cheap wax casting like that being offered by the competition


How to pay:
Paypal payments can be sent to -> sakebombgarage@gmail.com (in the 'notes' section please list "Passenger Door Handle").
These last handles are available first come first serve... if we're sold out you'll get an email with a paypal refund. Price includes shipping in the lower 48, international/HI/AL please contact us for additional shipping before paying.

bump... still a few left

Sorry for all the confusion guys, there are two different handles out there.

Our version - SBG (which is precision ceramic-cast and retains the stock finish, is CNC machined, and comes coated). These are finished and we have a few left in stock.

Chipsmotorsports (not us) is making their own (cheaper) version this handle as well, which has also been posted in this same section (adding to the confusion). This seems to be causing alot of questions/confusion and we've been receiving a bunch of messages from customers trying to figure out what is what.

To clear things up, these are two different parts, from two different companies.



First come first serve on the last handles we have. For a cheaper option check out chipsmotorsports (no affiliation)

paypal -> sakebombgarage@gmail.com
$225 (please include your forum name and "aluminum passenger door handle" in the notes section).

In the next production run once these last handles are sold (assuming there is enough interest).

With the promise of a cheaper made wax-cast handle for 50 less, people seem to have lost interest in our precision cast/ and CNC machined version. Ours comes with SS hardware, coated in our proprietary coating that matches OEM perfectly, and step by step instructions for every step of dis-assembly of the door and installation. kinda apples and bananas to compare with a part that's not yet made, but we just can't compete on price because ours cost unbelievably more to produce. The market is the market... so in short, if there's interest I can make a phone call tomorrow and have them done in a couple weeks. If you want in on more 93's start up a list and we can make them happen.

In no way am i taking sides on this mater, but i'm a curios dude that likes to see products that are made by companies. Rather than the usual typed up sales slogan.

The texture is from the casting itself... it's literally an identical copy of the 94 (or 93) finish... (the CNC comes in for the machined mounting points). Ceramic/rubber mold casting is a very sophisticated casting process compared to lost wax, which allows for very fine detail and great dimensional accuracy. Lost wax is typically used more for prototype production or artistic low volume castings. It captures the general shape of the original, and is cheap. For production parts for industry you use ceramic/rubber mold or sand cast (for large/rough parts like our LIM/UIM manifolds)

unfortunately we've only done the LHD version. We don't really have access to enough people with RHD cars to make a production run feasible

We've received a ton of PM's over the last few days with people interested in 93 finish handles... we're currently out but another production run is a phone call away. If there is interest in another run (actual interest, not kicking tires) please add your name below. With enough people on board we can run off another batch.

Yes, however, we are all out of 93 (smooth) finish... there are still a few in 94 finish... soon those will be gone too and we will need to another production run. If there are enough people on board we can do another run, but for now we're just selling off the last of the handles we have left. Send a PM and we'll get you squared away. -Heath

we currently only have 94 (textured) left, but I can start an interest list... I don't see too much solid interest though so another run of handles may or may not happen. If the demand isn't there we can't make more of them since they have to be made in larger quantities. The price would be $225 shipped for another run since the expensive mold cost no longer has to be factored in.

25-30 people (though I believe we could do that for both 93 and 94 finishes). We're nearly out of 94 textured finish anyway. Maybe I should start up a new interest thread... this one is a little cluttered, but if you add your name to this running list we'll get it moved over if we open a new thread.
