Painted Door Handles installed
I had a new set of OEM door handles color matched the same color as my Z. I hate how they are silver from the factory. Just figured id post some pics incase anyone else is considering this. I think it looks far better.

It looks good,but over time from grabbing the handles the paint starts to wear quickly that is the only reason why I haven't done mine.
I have seen them first hand they look funny worn.

I'm guessing you went to an automotive paint shop to do it... How long were they off the car? Did they paint the non exposed areas as well or will there be silver showing if you open the handle?
