alternative way to black out door handles?

saw these covers that just sticks on the original handle with double sided tape. so cant we just paint these black and stick the cover on the original handle, no need to paint the original ones and can be taken off anytime?

Would those fit the TSX?

I always thought a cool idea would be to plastidip the part you wanna paint, then paint the plastidip so you could take it off whenever...

I'm thinking the same. I thought the accords and the TSX have slightly different door handles. If it were the same, couldn't you just buy the accords door handles instead?

yeah, on the index page one of the items said "europe accord" so i thought this was for that as well. but now that im looking at it...i guess its for the US accord...i remember there are something similar for the 1st gen, where its a black chrome door handle cover...so i thought this was it.

false alarm then.

Yeah--

The easiest way to black them out would be to plasti-dip them, methinks.

Yea I took it off for now since Im going to this Acurazine meet this weekend and the plasti-dip if you look up closely looks kinda cheap in a way. Im rolling classy for now then when Im bored with the look I'll murder it out again.
