    Hi
    I'm putting carbon fiber vinyl on my dash. and I was planing on putting it on the door handles, they are very scratched up. but I don't see a way to get the handles off the door panel. With out taking them apart I don't thank I can get the vinyl in place to look good.
    Does anyone have a suggestion? Maybe paint?
    I started with just wanting to do the door handles, that let to the dash. Now new speakers and a driver side window regulator. At this rate I will have the whole car apart by tomorrow. :frown2:
    Thanks

    I was able to wrap without taking off. Bit of a pain, but it can be done.

    Just buy the CF handle covers from Aaron at Outmotoring. They install in 5 minutes, look great, good fit. I've had them on my last 2 MINI's.

    I hate to be stupid but I went to Outmotoring and could not find them. All I found were the out side ones. Do they have them for the interior?
    Thanks

    Call Aaron and he will help you. Check my garage if you want to see them ( on my Coupe).

    Ok I will give them a call. The dash and down tubes turned out nice. But the door handles not so great
    Thanks for the help
