Chrome door handle covers
Anyone put the chrome door handle covers over the painted door handles on their i4 coupe? I've seen these on ebay, and I was wondering if this was a good idea or not. I think adding these may look good with the chrome molding around the windows.

several people have put chrome covers over their handles, it's all up to you, whether you like that chrome look or not. depending on your car color, i say it varies, someone had painted their chrome window linings black on a ASM accord and it was pretty sick
.personally, id just keep it the way it is. but yeah up to you

you have the 8th gen right?
means that the chrome is in all finish for your door handle. Why not get the real one? All accord in asia model, the luxury model (L), has chrome door handle as standard. Just replace your door handle man.

I have the belize blue. I do like the black molding/grill look, but I'm not going to go that route, ill just keep the chrome look.
Buying new handles seems like it would be expensive. I saw covers starting at $20 |

The replacement handles don't cost that much but it's a lot more work than stick on covers.

YOu may acquire sticky handle syndrome if you change the handle completely.

looks nice... i guess that would be a bad investment. whenever the door handles mess up, you just buy another one for 30$ on amazon.

when you are up close to the door handles, do they look original? does it cover all of the red handle?
