    Ever thought of pillar vinyl? I always like the look of it on nova's to make the window's flow through from back to front etc..

    Dark handles does look cool too..

    This is only my opinion but I wouldnt go grey on the handles. They were used as a subtle mod that keeps the handle within the recessed part of the door and being colour coded helps disguise this and aids a smoother complete article. To go grey on them would defeat the object of what Benn was trying to achieve I think. I stand in a similar position on the vinyl also as I dont think it would suit this car.

    Pillar vinyl ftw, I agree with Scott on that

    All personal opinions tho

    I don't think the handles in gray would suit it at all imo

    You could be right, as some times i look at mine and think, god it looks gash, what am i doing, am i making a iffy 90#s mock rally/track car, or am i making a mess!
    I never set out to make any actual look with mine, i just thought, i like the idea of this, then this, then this, and just did them, even i don't know if it looks good, i lever that everyone els to judge, i think IMO it look ok...

    For some reason i just think the handles look better body colour when the bumpers are also body coloured, and if theyre anthracite, then the handles look better anthracite too.

    I wouldnt put a pillar vinyl on though itll look too much then.

    When i first painted the car, it was gonna have the vinyl but painted on. So it would all blend thru nicely. But forgot to and never looked back.

    In some ways it would look nice, in others i don't think it would...

    Nick sees the way i think. I knew where was a reason that the blue looked best.. Its to help it blend in..
