WTB: S5 Driver Door Handle Blaze Red

Turbo II · 04-02-2008, 08:12 PM

Like the title says, drivers door handle S5 series so it's blaze red, not sunrise red.
Would also consider a nice cheap black or sunrise red to use till I can get a blaze red one.

*edit*Shipped to 27603 Raleigh, NC

Your 7 finally failed you huh old man?

I have a sunrise red one, sure you don't want it!!

Turbo II · 04-02-2008, 08:15 PM

Yeah the damn thing broke today. I might take you up on that until I can get a blaze red.

Well, nevermind, Paul is using it! Lol.

Didn't J-Rat or someone have a trick for fixing these things?

As far as I know, they're pretty much spent if they break. You could JB Weld (?) them, but the pot metal they used for the hook thing (which I assume is what broke) is so crappy it's hardly worth the effort.

Yeah that's what I thought. I didn't bother with the one on the Vert when it broke. Just got another one and swapped it out. But now it seems like I remember seeing a thread years ago about someone using wire or something to fix them. I'm gonna have to go on a search you know where maybe.

I tried just using JB Weld, broke again in 15 minutes. I tried using little metal tabs with JB Weld reinforcement, broke in 15 minutes.

I got another handle.
