Does anybody know if the Re & Re of the door handles is a complicated process?
ANd suupposed i wanted to change the elegance door handles to
sport handles, would the door lock also have to be replaced with new ones, or could i keep it?

thanks

My guess is that this can be done without changing the door locks. Didn't some coupe owner change from black to painted. Try searching the forum

OK Thanks.
The paint of the OEM handles probably wont' chip eh? Is it better than paintitng it at the shop because some may say the paint will eventually chip?

It's not hard to change the Handles 1/4 hr per side could be done at home, if you are handy. I can get the OEM handles for you if you like they run around 150.00 US for all of the parts you retain the lock.

All 4 of them four $150Usd? That's a pretty good deal. Is it the one with the chrome on top like the elegance ones or, is it solid colour like the sport ones?
Renncpeo you think give a real brief outline as to taking off the handles? Just curious....
thanks
