colour coding door handles and side strips - whats cheapest option?

Featured Replies

Ok, so I want to colour code my silver vrs what are the best/cheapest options?

door handle:

remove and paint or buy similar ones like golf etc and fit

side strips:

remove and paint or paint as is

Just doing it on my silver fabia bar the door handles, I took off the side stripes but the paint behind was messed so it's going to the paint shop, but getting the Mirrors all sprayed silver, I would imagine painting the rub strips wouldn't be any cheaper than pulling them off plus your paint might be fine behind the strips.

I bought some golf mk4 door mouldings for pennies (mates rates etc) and sprayed them and door handles all in for under £30 and that's including buying a toffee wheel to get the nasty residue off from door mouldings.

Handles are quite easy to remove also. You don't have to remove the door cards.

That looks great mate, those doorstrips look way better than the oem ones. Nice idea :thumbup:
