ive seen a few people on here with these so i thought i would get a set...
its been my only mod from the last 6 months or so...

 

Wow, that looks really classy. Not sure I'm feeling the gold rims, maybe black with machined lip to go with the overall theme (paint/tint) scheme.. but all in all I like the handle mod.

 

that mod adds a simple elegant touch to the car. very nice man

 

where did you get the handle from?

 

Everyone used to flame these, without even knowing what they look like. But when pictures are posted, everyone changes their tune....fact of the matter is they look really great as long as you have at least a nice set of 18's w/ a chrome lip or something to accent the chrome. They definetly would look dumb on a totally stock car though.

 

Looks slick, very clean, I like it a lot.

 

shiny.... but really not my style... though i wonder how it would look on an ssm.... or perhaps a different color. did you replace the whole handle?

 

has any one tryed to put chrome trim ... you know around the windows and all.

 

i have chrome on the pillars. thats why im interested in the door handles

 

My CSM with chrome B-pillars and door handles.
I think they look nice and subtle on a CSM or SSM, especially with dark tint, but I wouldn't put them on a dark-colored tC.
(And before anyone comments, yes I've lowered it since then.)

 

mid.life.tc.crisis where did you get the handles from?

 

And anyone else wondering, I just googled...

Putco Door Handle Covers, Scion tC All Trims - $115
http://www.autocarparts.com/part/1816/1668/

Amazon has them for slightly less
http://www.amazon.com/Putco-Door-Han...dp/B000JQ3TGM/

 

so they are covers that go over the current handles?

 

looks good

 

Mine are Putco. Got them for $100 last year from a web site that doesn't sell them anymore.
If they seem expensive it's because they fit several Toyota models, including the RAV4 which has 5 doors. So, if the kit Vincenzo found is the same as mine, you get covers for 5 door handles in the kit. The only good thing about that is you can choose to install your covers either with the keyholes or without. Some people put on the hole-less covers to keep water out of the keyholes.

Bronx, yes, they're chromed plastic that stick to your door handles with strong 2-sided 3M tape.

 

You can get the exact same handles on ebay all day long. Set of 4 for like $40 shipped. Search for chrome door handles and look for one that says Camry/Rav4/Scion Xa. Those models fit the TC also.

 

i bought my chrome door handle overlays from the.pianist on Ebay. great seller

 

 

Just giving an Opinion...I never liked those chrome painted plastic door handle cover things...after seeing in person on Chevy trucks and a few other cars...just doesnt look "good" they dont line up that great..From a distance Yea they look good...when u get up close..Blahhh...Maybe if they were CF then it might look cool!...If it was the Entire handle replacement then it look cooler...the covers just are Blahhh

 

thanks for all the compliments...

i like the contrasting color of the gold and fm...though i owuld not have gotten them if i didnt have a machined lip...

thanks man i got the idea from you...you were the first person i saw with them
car looks good as always...i wish mine was as slammed

and i got them on ebay for $33 shipped...its listed under toyota rav4, scion xa, cars like that with the same door handles. i got a set of four 2 w/ and 2 w/out keyholes.
