Thumbs up Aluminum Door Handles

I recently purchased aluminum door handles from the JKL Engineering group buy, and all I have to say is these things are great!

They fit perfect, just like stock. They look perfectly stock, yet give you much more confidence when opening your doors. I'm no longer afraid of going to open my FD and having the handle come off in my hand, which is awesome.

I guess the best part is that the pair of aluminum handles cost less than one stock handle and I'll never have to take my assembly apart again to replace it.

we're lucky to have 3 vendors who sell these now. I know a lot of old school guys are probably dissapointed that they weren't availible 8 years ago when their handles broke the first time


Also, I started this thread in the third gen section since it's about the product itself, not the transaction or the seller in general. Plus it only affects FD owners. I'm sure most FC or first gen owners could care less if there's finally a worthy replacement to the stock door handles.
