Interior Handles

So my passenger side door handle is peeling really bad and its driving me nuts. Instead of just getting a stock one and replacing it, does anyone have some good looking ones so i can get some ideas??

I'm going to paint mine a graphite-ish color to match all the other interior trim in the spring when it gets warmer here.

I would like to know also. This is my second balt and I wanna get to it before this happens. I was thinking on clear coating them before they chip. Anyone try this? I also wanna see other color options if anyone can post it. IF not clear coat I was thinking just black.

so your saying you might as well just take the tin foil **** off down to bare plastic and then wrap it or paint it in something else?
the same things happening to mine and i feel like the plastic would just be terrible

I finished taking off the rest of the gay chrome and then wrapped it.

anybody got a link to a good site to get the CF vinyl from for wrapping that ?
also you think it would be pretty easy to do the dash trim ?

get this i had to reaplace that arm on the door and i was taking the door pannel off and instead of looking up how to do it i just took it apart from where the top and big bottom piece connect and busted out all those pins so now its looks ghetto
anyone know where i can get a black on black door panel? haha

i havent bought it yet but from the vids ive seen on youtube, if you mess it up, all you have to do is heat it up again and it will go back to its normal shape. youtube di-noc

Hey everyone. My drivers side handle peeled too. Glad this conversation came up coz I have been reduced to just scratchin my head. Keep this one in the loop or make it a sticky if someone solves this one.
