New Door Handles

The paint on the Drivers Side exterior door handle on my 06 started pealing, so I replaced them with this. What do you think?

Looks great! Looks perfectly at home with the gray 'Stang. Just my opinion, I probably wouldn't use these handles on most colors, but it works well with Tungston Gray.

Thanks guys. I was on the fence about them when I purchased, but Both sides together were about ten dollars more than one of the factory painted ones. After i got them installed I think it pulls the car together. I defiantely have gone for the old school look. If Iknew they would fit and could find a set of stick on ones I probably would replace the stide stripe with the classic GT stripe and add the Mustang 2+2 letters by the pony.

I currently have a GT300 side stripe that bugs me because it doesn't look like the Shelby GT350 or GT500 side stripes from the '60s. I want it to say GT300 just in that old school style. I'm actually going old school also, with bits taken from the GTs, Mach1s, and Bosses. A tribute to just a timeless classic.

I got them from parts train http://www2.partstrain.com/store/?PN...ND(universal:0) The handles are the bottom two on this page. Don't worry about the picture on the passenger side it is the correct part just an incorrect pucture. The list for $24.98.

Looks great. Gives it the classic feel. These might look great on a Bullett edition.

Perfect. Jewelry for a beautiful lady. A classic look. Remember when all cars had them before the auto makers went cheap. That's right, tasteful chrome is expensive, painted or black is cheaper for the mfgs, and it looks it!
