Aluminium or steel door handles...

Two aspects that disappoint me on the aesthetic side is the use of plastic for the door handles, both inside an out. Even my wife's old Alfa 147 had billet handles.

Anyone know who makes either aluminium of stainless steel door handles for the RRS? I've seen simple clip on covers in chrome, but I want something to substitute the handle.

Thanks.

But are these coated plastic or CNC'ed billet? Chrome it too shiny for me, prefer aluminium or steel. Same effect as the Alfa handles. 2007 Audi Q7 4.2 FSI Grey/Black Int.

You are correct. These would be reprocessed OEM plastic handles. The other I can offfer are stainless steel covers which do look very good on the vehicle but they too are shiny.We could look into a painted finish if that would be of interest? ie either body colour or a special aluminium paint colour.
