Door Handles - Paint Coming Off

[GaryM]

Both mine 2000 and my friends Galaxy's both have the paint comming off the door handles. I think my mate has had hers replaced 4 times now! So I take it this is very common although I have not seen any posts here. Anyone have any solutions appart from replacing them again?

 

Was thinking of respraying them with real paint rather that the rubbery stuff but I'm not sure how easy it is to get just the handle off.

Not been looking very hard then - this has been covered loads of times. Rubbery finish needs special primer if you are going to try to paint over it yourself. Else, look at some of the chrome alternatives that can be bought as better replacements. Try a search on "handles"
