68917, RS door handle/mirror options...
Posted by hazardeclipse, Mar-17-04 02:12 AM
i tend to get kinda spacey when i'm really tired... yesterday, i was thinkin about my RS and if i left my mirrors black, but painted my door handles white, would that be ricey, or would the black mirrors look better because the window mouldings, and whatnot... what do you guys think? BTW, all opinions wanted, my mind isn't set, one way or another....

My GS was the same way, however I had them paint everything. To me it made the car just look better.

I love how my rearview disappears into the window molding... I have a white car so it looks WAY better black IMO. But yeah the black door handle sticks out, I been meaning to paint it.

I just did this very thing this last weekend. Painted the handles but not the mirrors. I'll try to get some pictures so you can see what it looks like, but it may take the better part of the week.

Definitely paint them both to match the car. It gives it much more of a streamline look. Trust me.

Tho if you had a talon, like someone who posted above...I think the black flows great with the matching roof.

I prefer the door handles painted body color but the mirrors black, especially if you have dark window tint.
