colour matched door handles
debadged 370z

for a black,white or grey Z: black out the nissan emblems and fill in N I S S A N with grey paint or white.............guaranteed awesomeness

I definitely find it weird that the handles and emblems don't match. One way or the other, I could care less, but at least make them match.

armensti · 08-03-2009, 12:30 AM

paint everything black. thats what i did =)

Color matched handles? Why not shaved handles... then you don't have to worry about matching anything

ZeeRay · 09-22-2009, 10:30 PM

Very interesting. Considering putting these into production, but with a "Z" instead of Nissan. Brushed would not be tough, but body color is a hard thing to match for production items.

kdo2milger · 09-22-2009, 10:31 PM

brushed z would be perfect...

ZeeRay · 09-22-2009, 10:43 PM

Well I'll go to the salvage yard and pull an emblem, get the dimensions and crank out a couple as soon as the mill and vertical lathe open up. We'll test out what finishes come out best.

Depends on the color of the car.

kdo2milger · 09-22-2009, 10:45 PM

is it just metal products or can you make other things too

OK, this has my vote. You might have to add it to the poll

Mergnthwirker · 09-22-2009, 11:52 PM

Um, none of the above?

I've never been a fan of the Nissan hamburger. Having just a nice Z on each end would be enough for me. No other badges!

And the door handles suck. My wife complains that they are nail-breakers (especially when you switch hands on the offside door). I'd prefer a "stealth" door opening solution, body color only if it can be scratch-proof, otherwise brushed nickel.
