so did you sand them? primer them? or did you just take them off and whip out the can of paint and get to it??

Nice job on the handles, what color code is the paint?

Here is the painting info: I lightly sanded just to take the existing shine off the handles then cleaned with 91% alcohol then just sprayed 3 light coats of paint and 2 coats of clear coat.
there are 3 screws holding the driver side handle and 2 on the pass side remove rubber grommets to access the screws use a magnetic head or you have to take door panel off to find the screws that can fall down in the door.

I believe any painting of the handles should be to color match another part of the car. Like calipers, rims, body

I tried to match the body color Platinum Graphite
I was going to match the black wheels but I choose the PG match.:ugh2:

Good job! I was thinking of painting mine black (Monterey Blue 09 370z) but I don't have much black on the car minus a tint coming this week and my body shop spraying the fangs all black. May consider a roof wrap as well.

What do you guys think?
