I just got my chrome interior door handles in. I ordered them from ebay. I've never seen or heard of any s14 with these so I didn't know. It said they were JDM, and even put japanese tape(had japanese writing) and japanese newspaper to protect them. They pretty nice, I figured itd be a nice contrast to the black interior. they were only 20 bucks too

well I got them in and took pictures, but they came out horrible. I didn't realize how shi**y this sony camera is. my door panels look white. so Ill take better pics in daylight. overall they aren't bad.worth 20 bucks i guess, not much more though. they remind me of a newer car because nowadays door handles are almost always chrome, so thats cool. I just think its funny that this dipsh** went all the way as to put japanese newspaper in. lol, one of the pages has a phone number to a business in california. chinatown maybe?

um, i wasn't trying to be "jdm tyte". I knew from the start they weren't jdm, I just thought someone painted them and thought they might look cool. this will probably be the only chrome thing in my car, and Im happy with my factory shift knob and factory pedals thank you

Could have went to the junk yard and got them cheaper I bet...*wisper* maybe a 5 finger discount. Stealing is bad.

I usually feel chrome looks cheap, but in this case it does make the car look fresh.so, great job.
