where to buy OEM PTM handles

is there a better place to buy OEM black painted door handles than the dealerships? what about ptm mirror caps?

if so, where do you recommend?

Cheapest will be to just have someone paint them. It cost me $300 to get my handles and mirrors done. Dealership wanted $300 just for the handles w/o instalation. I seen some on ebay a while back for pretty cheap.

the dealer is the only place that sells handles that come bare and ready to paint, just order handles for a harley f150 and they will come smooth but without paint. mirror caps. do you have the mirrors that have separate caps? if your mirror don't have a chrome cap/or is already painted, you cannot use the mirrors caps, you would need to sand the top half and have it painted.

you're saying that the painted top part of the harley/fx2/fx4 is not just a cap that is stuck on but actually the whole piece with only part painted?

if so, that's weird

Tasca has LT handles that come already painted, in multiple different paint codes.

I bought 4 door handles and the tailgate handle in the smooth black with LT chrome pull for $145 shipped from autoanything.com. Then got them painted for $100.

Hey, Domenic... thanks for helping out here... Quick question, other than the LT handles, do you have any PTM (smooth) handles that are pre-painted? I don't want the chrome handle... all black would be preferable. Just thought I'd check...

They don't make them, they are only available primed. I do have a body shop here. I have them getting me a price to paint them.
