PTM Handles / Mirror Pics

Bought some chrome stick on handles on ebay for $40 and had them painted and also had the the mirror caps painted aswell.

My advice to anyone who purchases cheap ebay handles , go out and buy a roll of 3m double sided tape , and dont be shy with it.

overall i love the look , cant really tell there is a cover on and install was a breeze

That looks very nice, what was the cost to have them painted? I would love to do that on my truck.

how the heck did you get them mirrors off, I was looking at mine today and was trying to figure out where they come off at.
