Benn's on going build

Get a wheel, paint strip it.
Start sanding whole wheel, 180grit, 320, 800, 1000, 1200. then polish on 2 different grades of buffing wheel with polishing soaps.
Hard to get a good finish, hand cause it takes hours.

benn, £100 for that door and other handle..? or if you want.. i can cut the handle out and we can sort a price out?

Hhmmm tempting.. let me know a price, if not i'll buy your mates.

Still got a new set of audi handles here if you want them.

Oh. Pm me a price dude...

Benn, just an idea but........ how about going for the smoother handle/door look another way? My old shell had custom handles which basically were made by removing all the rubber cladding on the door handle itself and just leaving a small metal base, IIRC theres two tiny holes in the handle base you can weld up then fill,prime and paint etc, jobs a good one. Much easier than the audi handles and they look cool too. The handles when done in this way sit flush into the door and give a smoother look all round especially when looking from the front to rear or vice versa. I later sold them to Rob77 on here Im sure he had a for sale thread some time ago for them when he broke his car.You could search for pics etc as I dont have any unfortunatly. Or I remember you saying you had the mags with my old car in? Check the tv feature when the car was pink as Im sure theres a cheeky shot of the handles there. :)

I remember those on Rob's car - looked quite cool.

Benn, £40 posted for the kits.. will cut as much spare metal of as i can for ya
