Re: Door handle (exterior) mod?

The handles on my truck are shaved, so are the emblems, mirrors, cowl, stake pockets and tailgate chains. Lots of great options in this thread though, the "refrigerator handle" style that Yukon posted looks clean without appearing too modern...

Re: Door handle (exterior) mod?

I decided the plastic CX9 handles felt too cheap so I removed and shaved them. I cut the ends off a bread pan to make the place where you can reach in and activate a latch button. The edge of the door will be the handle. And Black Sheep...I love the look of that tri-five truck!
