I had a small sample of lamin-x tint, so I decided to try it out on one of my door handles. I'm not sure if I like it or not, will probably leave it on a few days and see if it grows on me. Has any one done this to their door handles? Any pictures of how it looks?

 

if you did the other side too i think i'd be down with it.

 

I like it. Just do the whole door handle.

 

Need better pic

 

Looks great but you need to do the other half of the handle.

 

The tint has some lighter spots on it, when I looked at it today. I don't know if there is some moisture trapped under, or what is causing that. If I do it, I will do the whole handle, I just had 1 4x8 sample sheet. It turns out that it isn't enough to do even the left side of the handle, the very left edge is slightly uncovered, so I think it will require a bigger sheet.

 

This is what I have planned for my window trim and if I had any leftover vinyl I'm going to do the handles as well. The vinyl 'm using is Oracal 8300

Here's some test I did.

 

I hate the chrome handles as some of you may know so I think this looks great. From my experience of LaminX on my head/tail lights isnt the material thick? The handle must feel weird now lol.

 

Yeah, the film is pretty thick. But it doesn't feel much different on the handle. I think the thickness makes it harder to install though. I peeled mine off because I had some areas that had moisture trapped underneath causing it to look lighter in some spots. I like the way your vinyl looks, the laminx sort of has that purplish look of cheap window tint.

 

looks good

 

I want black chrome, like the cu2 concept in Japan. It looks sexy.
