Arent those just the stick-on covers for the door handles? Or I know there was some guy on FJ that just bought them from some place in the states.
Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me? - Flofocus - 04-07-2004
Yes i think there just doorhandle covers.

Like try parts only=80 Euro's instead of $80CDN. Then you can talk shipping and duty. This will be a $200+ job, vanity pure and simple.
Before I get the speech I'll just mention that it is my money and to keep things in perspective, my work gave me $900+ in gas expenses for March alone. I'm just re-investing* a portion of it.
I suppose there is a supplier in North America but I just went through our buddy Sascha in Germany. http://www.european-parts.net/
*not that I ever condone using the word investment in the same sentence as cars.
Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me? - BerinG - 04-08-2004
lol... yeah.. pretty expensive indeed.. I wouldn't judge you on the cost.. those are nice handles right there haha (trying to make it positive ;) you are a brave man)
Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me? - naz - 04-08-2004
bling bling cuz the money ain't a thing is never bad
haha
its gonna be CRAZY when you finally ditch the focus and step into something german.. your bling options will increase exponentially.. and it starts right at the dealer with luxury leather packages, navigation.. etc etc etc :D
Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me? - Zoom - 04-08-2004
it seems 52 euros for the parts. so thats around 80 bucks after the conversion.
duties, shipping etc... yeah thats all extra....
Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me? - naz - 04-08-2004
you know.. if duty to the US is a lot cheaper.. i could have stuck them onto my car.. parked outside your house..
the next morning.. WTF.. my chrome handles suddenly became black plastic again
:ph34r:

Most of the stuff is european style, so I wonder if the mirror covers are a replacement panel rather than a stick-on overlay. Probably stick on, since that's what the rest of it is.
