best outside door handles

I see this topic has not been discussed for a while. Has anyone lately bought any outside door handles that were good quality. In searching previous posts it seems the quality has been quite poor in the past. Guess I"m hoping something better has come on the market. If anyone who has purchased a nice set lately can chime in i"d appreciate it

Re: best outside door handles

I got mine from Summit. I forget who made them but the quality was good. Mine is a daily driver so I didn't look super close at the finish like I would a show truck. Under fifty dollars.

I second that from Summit. The first set I bought from GMC Pauls didn't even last a month.

Re: best outside door handles

There is a company GSI making billet ones and I bet they are nice.

Anyone with experience?
