e brake handle options

RyanWest · 02-15-2015, 03:15 AM

I was just about to post this same question. Everything my Z looks mint except the damn E brake handle.

My girlfriend just bought me a Nardi Torino CF handle for valentines day, it's in the mail now. I will post a pic when installed. There is WAY too little info on this, and it's one of the cheapest parts on this car.

I am sure they can make it in dry CF.

Matching CF.

I need to get an E-Brake boot to go over the new Nardi handle. Anyone know of a website that'll have one? Or is this something I should have made somehow

You saw this?

NISSAN, VOLKSWAGON items in 350z store on eBay!

I then had a local guy custom make a matching cover for the center console lid.

Is that the peel and stick vinyl stuff? I want real Carbon fiber.

Also, Received my Nardi ebrake handle. I'm going to have to send it back. Have some bubbles in the resin, there is glue seeping from the seams between the CF and a metal ring, also it looks like there's a smear of adhesive on the handle from when they affixed the Nardi logo to the handle. I'm going to call the place I ordered it from and see if they'll check the product first before sending another.

Any updates! man im eager to see a DIY for this.

maggotcorps · 05-30-2015, 06:08 PM

so maybe I am completely missing a link or something.... but is there a DIY out yet for the e-brake replacement? All the pretty handle pics are nice and all, but how the hell do I take my OEM handle off without destroying it all? lol
