Default Evo-r handle covers.. Yes or no.

Hey what's up guys. So after well over 100 hrs of my time and a bit of cash I get my cat to the point I thought it was done..... Only to hear from all my friends " what about the silver handles" >.< the 1 st thing that popped to mind was to match them to my wheels. But I ran out of that paint and it's crazy expensive to buy just for handles. ( was 380$ for .25 liter. So what you guys think about the evor r cf covers ? Any one have or seen them in person. Your thought are appreciated . Thanks

The covers look great. I've seen them in person and they fit like a glove. I'd get the cf B pillar covers too.

I've got a set of B pillar covers to match my cf duck tail spoiler. I had my handles painted body color.

Good luck!

Cool I was worried that they would look autozone civic ish. Do not want. I don't know if I'll get the b pillars also though too much cf looks tacky IMO .

Im interested in these as well.. However I have seen some pictures that make the handle look to big and bulky with the cover on.. maybe it was just the angle?


OP if you buy them post up some good pictures!

Why not paint to match body color?

Our cars look very similar and I was ready to ask the same question. I have ordered the pillars in cf and was wondering about the door handles in cf. Just do not want them to be too much!! Also do not want it to look cheap after all the money I have spent. Is there such a thing as too much cf??? I love the way it looks....

Mine is the CS diffuser, quality was great the wait was not. I don't think color matched would look good on mine though I seen some that look sick. I think with my scheme the color needs to be broken up a bit and the handle is a perfect area for that. That's the reason why I left it silver in the 1st place.
Thanks for all the input sofar guys. Keep it coming.
