UPDATE

I sent my handles off to krometics. (Thanks to my husband CCJ22's idea since he knows these people)

I'll come back in and update this thread with the results once we get the handles back.

Less expensive then the LX-mode stick on plastic handles too... Question is, how well will this "paint" hold?
CCJ22 states it's not actually paint it's a similar to process to what they use to make mirrors.

I sure will Brian. For those keeping up it is $175 for all 4 door handles to be done and that does include clear coating them.

The only problem..... Waiting. AKA the car will be down obviously cause you can't get into the car to use it everyday.
