    So on my Barcelona, I need to get my door handles repainted. Given my theme, would you guys repaint the current handles, or go with Gloss Black?

    I'd say to go with the matte black handles, or keep the color matched handles given your setup with textured flares and steps

    Sparks offers color matched door handles. I ordered mine in Cavalry Blue and still awaiting delivery. They paint them on site and said there was a 5 week curing time and I am in week 2.

    The problem is that Barcelona Red was never an option.

    I would email them and provide your vin number. I bet they can do it. Assuming that's your original color.

    I would go with flat black to match your fender flairs and decals

    If you go black will you also do the rear doors also!!

    I prefer color matched, but I would like to see voodoo blue handles on that Barcelona or vice versa

    I'm with tundra 2019 tss, match your fenders and other trim or stay with the color you have. Definitely not gloss.

    my first car was an 81 VW rabbit diesel, the door handles fell off. You had to reach in the whole and pull a metal rod to open the doors. That would be a cool mod....go with no handles at all. Chick's dig it, trust me.

    Hell, if that happens you can go after the chain handle mod!
    Padlocks are way more secure than flimsy automotive lock cylinders anyway. :notsure:

    But then he'd have to lower it, embed the license plate in the tailgate, ditch the rear bumper for a rollpan, and add a chainlink steering wheel.
    Goodbye mod money!

    Now you guys are just being sarcastic lol. I'll have them color matched when I get the grill, headlight panels, and bumper cover painted. Doesn't the bumper need to come off to get the cover off?
