eugopnosaj 0 Posted March 4, 2010 the handles are originally black however over years of usage and general weathering they've become a rough grey colour. To get them looking like you want you'll have to sand them down, prime them, then paint them with a black paint (spray works best) then to protect them and get the shiny effect use some lacquer. Thats what i did to mine and they look really good (not black though, pearl green) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eugopnosaj 0 Posted March 4, 2010 If you want them delocked then you'll need to get passat rear handles and the locking mechanism, try the search theres lots of threads about it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
