Rear boot handle

What's the thoughts?

Thinking of changing my rear boot handle to be Alaska white like my other door handles

A little Photoshop I did earlier

Will these mods have much effect when I decide to change?? That might be one for James to answer?? Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Pinky,

Do your white door handles leave finger marks?
If not, then i think your white boot handle would look good.

Door handles look good, Thumbs Up but I think the 'standard' boot handle helps to break up the the colour scheme on the back end. Personally, I think it would be too much of the same if you colour coded the bar.

The door handles are a great, no finger prints or anything, so i dont think the boot handle would have any problem either

With me getting rid of the tungsten colour doors when i fitted the coded handles, i think the tungsten grey boot handles stands out a little more, especially since all the other plastic is black (excluding the front tow hook cover)

not in a bad way, and the handle i'll get painted or wrapped (if they can do alaska white wrap Question ) only cost £15 instead of the £80+ i saw the last one go for

I have thought about going black matt vinyl too, getting the side tubes matt instead of satin, the mud flaps and the rear door handles done too as a contrast, but i don't think that it would work well on white Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

It would look even more like a Pimp Mobile out of Starsky and Hutch - what next animal fur interior and fluffy dice!
