Default Chrome mirrors and door handles

Does anyone have the chrome mirror covers and door handle covers that use the 3M tape? I was looking into them and wanted to know how people liked them. How well they stayed attached. And if they looked good or could you tell they were stick on ones. Also, if you could post any pics to show what they look like.

Thanks in advance for any info.

Davemec, I have the Putco brand stick on door handles on my Ford F-250 and they have stuck on very well, theylook very good, you cannot tell they are the stick on type,and they have been very durable so far. I have bought a set for the handles formy wifes 07 Hoe for Christmasso I cannot tell you how they look on it yet but I hope I have the same good results. You can buy billet type handles but they are very expensive and pretty labor intensive to install.I personally do not like the mirror covers so I cannot comment on them. Also there are probably many manufacturers (???) of the handles and I only have experience with the Putco brand but FWIW I am happy!

Here is a listing for handles and mirror covers. You can see in the picture what they look like. I don't have the handles butI put on the mirror lower covers and they look fine and stuck well. You can't tell its an add on.

Thanks RedBoat, I'll have to check out the Putco brand covers to see how much they go for.

tahoe07, I was actually watching that listing and trying to decide what to do. Is that the same company you bought your mirror covers from? I too am looking to get the lower covers.

No, it's not the same company. It is however, the best deal I've seen.

I just finished installing the lower chrome covers for the side mirrors and the later 07 chrome factory grille...the tahoe looks great now.

It is a good deal. Just wanted to see if you had used the company to know how trustworthy they are. I will probably go ahead and order from them and see how it goes.

They charge $60 for shipping cause they are only charging 60 for the handles and mirror covers. Basically they are charging 60 for the handles and 60 for the covers and giving free shipping.

foofighter, you got any pictures.
