:iagree:

Pearl white. Sorry, should've mentioned that.
Dropped them off this morning. They didn't use enough pearl...if that makes sense. I'm not sure if they didn't mix in enough pearl, or if they didn't spray enough coats of pearl. ??

I'll post pics once they get it right. This mod is a PITA

It's all about personal taste. Personally, I don't like the look, especially since there is no other brushed aluminum on the outside of the car, with the exception of the wheels to some extent. I like a more monochromatic look.

I don't like the faux brushed aluminum look on the inside too. I hated the trim on the inside of my G37S. Other people went rasy over it.

Now guys love painting them black, but I don't care for that either. I respect their taste and what they want to do with their cars, it's just not for me.

Once it's all sorted, you'll be happy you did it. :tup:

You're so right GurneyEagle. It was worth the hassle :tup:

^looks great. It totally depends on the car's color, but I generally prefer the painted handles.

Mine: Matched door handles

I recently covered the handles with clear bra to protect all that hard work :tup:

My car is black and I'm doing it now it's in the paint shop, hope they match the color .
I'll post pic's when it's done

Great Idea !

Glad you are happy. Looks great. :tup:

As I stated previously, in my opinion (which I acknowledge is totally worthless), there's no comparison between the silver and painted handles. It really dresses up the car.

I wish I knew of a good paint shop around here. Anyone have it done in North Carolina?

Yeah, the paint does add a nice touch for sure. I have a silver and like it as is, but I'd have them painted if I had another color for sure.

Whatever you do Pearl White owners do not try to use white PlastiDip. The bright white up against the pearl is atrocious, not that I didnt know that before trying but I was hoping the PD white wouldn't be super bright. :eek:

Epic FAIL to say the least!

Since this is an older thread, I thought I'd ask what folks thought of their painted door handles now that they are a few years old. How did they last?

I just bought a 2016 NISMO in red and I'm considering having my bodyshop paint them. The OEM ones draw too much attention.

mine look as good as the day they were painted. It has been about 2 years.

It does look good! Did you remove/install yourself? If so, how was it?
