Hello,
I am new to this forum and cars in general. I just got my mini CM and I was wondering if it was possible to paint the door handles so instead of being chrome, I could make them black? If so what paint would I use?

 

Painted our door handles with black Plastidip. Masked off the area with Frog masking tape, and applied very light coats until the desired affect was achieved. Highly recommend wiping down the handles with rubbing alcohol to clean the surface prior to painting for better adhesion. I am aware of the many opinions of this product, but it's durable and removable. The handles have been painted for over a year now and only minor touch up has been required.

 

+ 1 for plastidip

 

Thanks for the info buzzsaw. Do you have the comfort access feature? Was wondering of the plastidip would interfere with it.

 

No that option was not available at the time. Maybe someone familiar with that feature could chime in.

 

Thanks for the info, I'll make sure to get on that soon

 

Which paint hould I get though? The spray paint or one that I paint on with a brush?

 

spray...unless your an artist.

 

I was going to say plasti-dip spray is your best bet.

 

Ahahah I wouldnt say I'm an artist in the least bit. Thank you so much for all the info and advice however. I hope it turns out well.

 

Can plastidip be color matched? Anyone?

 

Well.. Anything is possible... But they are mainly flat colors.

They do also make a gloss clear coat plasti-dip if you want a gloss finish.
