Since the handles are plastic..i think these will look horrible over time with use.

Now IF the handles were constructed out of steel....then this would be a must!!!

I've seen it on a few GSs on magazines and the JP GS, personally it's a little too much chrome for me. Just my .02

here is how the Junction Produce Chrome Handles look on my car... They did not seem to be made out of plastic when I installed them. Very heavy and sturdy. The inner part of the the handle is kind of a wrinkled finish to prevent scratching by your nails or something... I can take close up pics of it when the sun comes out tomorrow morning...

sure, I dont have any pics of the wing and front grill on my laptop right now, but I can take some tomorrow. My trunk is slightly tweaked right now so u can see that my wing is off on one side. It fit fine when we test fitted it on a friends GS, but I have a bad trunk =X It was my fault when I took off the stock spoiler =X That will be fixed when I bring my car back in to repaint the front end. I will post it on a completely different post so that I do not hijack this thread.. sorry about that!
