Interior/Exterior door handle cups: reviews?
Can anyone who has added the chromed-plastic door handle cups (from RCSpeed or another vendor) give an update on how they like them after they've been on a for a while?
Are they staying nice and tight to the car's body? Are they staying "chromed" and not fading or chipping? Any problems with adhesion or the seal (I realize they just use a two-sided tape adhesion). DId you need to sand or otherwise modify the backsides to get a tight fight despite the little "bumps" where the piece was pulled from the chroming pool?
Thanks for any "reviews."

I have had them for around 4 months, so it is a little soon to see fading. They fit fine without any modification. My only complaint was they were pretty skimpy with the tape. They seem to rock back and forth on the little dime-sized piece of tape. I took them off and replaced the tape with a nice big half-dollar square and they fit more solidly. I don't think you could get them off now without breaking them.
I have a Cosmos Black Cooper and like the little chrome touches: door handles, side vents and bonnet vent grilles. I have seen the chrome mirror covers and thought they were just a little over the top. To each his own.
