most like likely adhesive application. and not a double tape app either i hate that stuff always fails. it would be more reliable form id have u use to apply.

a bead of silicone and some clamps is all youll need to adhere the handles to the car.

ok so heres a teaser pic now keep in mind this is the first shot. like i said im trying a few ideas on doing this. This one was right out the mold n thats it i didnt trim it and it ended up with a air pocket at the one end. im messing with a diff setup now for the next one. all and all it think for a tester this was a nice turn out. ill trim it up and put it on the ride for a install type of pic. what do u think so far. ideas would be great.

nice! great to see these go to someone who will actually make something out of them

when you start making $ off of them, keep in mind that ive also got a set of molds for the 95-02 sunfires for evil eyelids they are actually EASIER to make than those and will sell for the same or more.

Not to bring back an old thread but did anything ever come from this guy making the door handles? I am sure that making CF items cannot be that hard once the technique has been learned. Where would someone find molds of various items to begin making stuff cuz it's something I would like to get into my spare te when I am not tinkering with my cars?
