door handles

polarity · 09-18-2009, 12:23 PM

Anyone done anything with them yet? Or seen any good photoshop with them completely removed? I was thinking the car might look great with no handles, but I'm not good with photoshop to test it out.

Hehe right after you posted that I searched "handles" and went through a few pages of results wondering what you saw that I wasn't, now I see hehe. My Z is silver and the handles are a different silver so I'm just looking at options.

I actually like the handles without them there is no curve or accent with color.

There is really nothing to break up the monotony without them.

I just got mine painted body color on my Magnetic black Z. I think it looks great. With my wheels, the silver handles just stuck out like a sore thumb.

I agreee. My Z is Solid Red. But i have a matte black roof, wheels, front grille, and headlights. The handles look completely out of place

Thanks!

those in the picture are the widened 350Z track wheels, now 18x9.5 with 275/35-18s R888s all around. Street wheels are the Nismo S-tune 19s.
