Carbon fiber door handles
Not a fan of the chrome ones on my car. Anybody have some carbon fiber ones that fit well? Please provide a link if you have one.

If you have the touch switches on the handle the carbon covers prevent the touch switch from working. Don’t know why. I tried them and had to send them back.

Agreed. I had mine wrapped almost two years ago and have held up very well. The touch switch is still functional too.

Did you wrap over the actual switches or did you leave them uncovered.

Outside of the handle is fully wrapped, small inside portion is partially not wrapped (and not visible).
