if i recall, it's not easy to take these apart because welding is required.

I have had mine for 3 months now and they are JB welded. JB weld will hold anything is preoperly applied and there is no stress on the component like in the handle.

i agreee with golfkid i havent seen a link at all about these and from what i seen it is hard to have a 3m version of it it would clearly stick out... the only one i seen for the gs is for the 06 and up...unless u got mistakeing for those

He's talking about something like this but I didn't see any for a 2GS.

But I would definitely go with the whole handle replacement and just paint the part that you don't want to be chrome.

But not like the ones he has on the car, the ones that are off the car.

i think that is definitely the link to sell you on doing just half of the handles!
