im gonna venture into doing this myself on mine [ERRR] they are black plastic, but far as i know its like this, you take the card of the inside of your door so you can get to behind you handle, you will see when you get to this stage but then you will need to undo it from behind and get the handle off, when you get it off get some exterior plastic bumper primer and the colour of your car and some finish gloss or something, sand the shiny pooe off the handle and then give it a wash, when its dry prime it, then the next day prime it again, then the next day spray it the colour of your car, if you do light layers of your colour it shouldnt take lond to dry so you can add more layers till its the same as your car, leave it to dry and then gloss it, and then you can put it back on, same goes for mirrors i would say, the reason i say do more than one layer of primer is becoz some spray paints can react with the plastic and not finish right or stick right, doing it more than once just gives you peace of mind if you get me, ill stop babling now. hope it helped, or you could even get some m3 mirrors [ERRR] they aint dear anymore, they only bout 40 quid new, and look top. :smile:
