Handles are looking sweet and you've done a great job with the garnish!

Although the garnish itself looks great, it strongly reminds me of a VN commie... :
No offence intended, as it really does look good!

mate painted everything so didnt really pay much at all...dunno how much it'd cost to get painted normally but i just gave him a 50 to paint handles and garnish but he bogged but the garnish and prep'd everything so i didnt do much! hehe
Yeh i knew alot of people thort i'd look like the VN but hey i was just trying something different and i dont think it looks that much VN if ya kno what i mean : i was originally goin to paint the numberplate surrounds bit black but i dont think that would of worked in as well as color-coded ;) plus...it was too much extra effort! haha

Looks good. Colour coded garnishes look dodgy on many different colour cars, but it looks great on your car

looking crazy there dude nice job, just a question though, do the EL door handles fit straight into the door or does it require modifing and same goes for the release rods and stuff on the other side of the handles

God DAMN!
I had this garnish project in mind awhile ago. I thought it was a very original idea and now someone's pulled it out from behind me and done it. *shakes fist in anger* Oh well, If I get some money together and do this project you can't say that I copied you. Mwahahaha. |
