black to silver handles...

Anyone order color matched handles and replace them on their 2k1's...???

I'm tired of looking at the black...just sticks out way too much...lucky 2k2 bastards!!!

Anyone know how easy it is to do..?...I assume the process involves removing the inside door panel...and various other work in the door...but would it be worth it...I don't wanna spend a load of cash just to have them painted...Just thinking...

Someone has done it...but maybe some of you can shed some light on this...

Actually, I have an 02 LX and the door handle is painted. The only thing not painted are the mirrors. True though that the EXs are all color matched.

yeah i ordered em...got em today (sept. 11 [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG] ) i tried putting em on, but it seems damn near impossible...

ive got to get em on tho, im soooo sick of the black door handles, they look like ship!

anyway, honda quoted me $96 to put em on.....you know what, honda can suck my D**k...they also quoted me $99 to put on a B pipe (runs from cat to axleback), this thing consists of about 4 bolts and a few hangers....they pis me off soooo bad!!!!

anyway, sorry i had to vent, im gonna try and find a place that will do it cheaper, or go back in and tear my door apart to get em in....either way, its gonna happen

ive already got the silver mirrors and they made a huge difference....
