Default Vinyl door handles?

Hey guys. I just have a general question about vinyl, I want to vinyl wrap my door handles black, like how the crafted lines look. Has anyone done theirs? Also how does vinyl sustain with heat? I'm in so cal and I've been told vinyl doesn't last as long because of our sunny weather. Any info would be great!

Should be an easy install and you should be fine with the weather. Only thing heat will really do is possibly shrink the material ever so slightly. If you want full coverage, the best thing to do would be to remove the handles. Wrap the inside first then wrap the outside and overlap it onto the inside piece.

If you don't want to remove the door handles, you can always just do the outside. Here's a video i found on youtube,
