I did have a good chuckle when I saw these on flea bay! they'd probably suit a council 316 e30s that have m3 on the boot and wears one of those nasty reiger bodykits!

Im sorry, you really don't need these, Just because some muppet got a "sick laser cutter" for Christmas doesn't mean you have to give him your hard earned cash!
You would be better off spending the same money on a set of original handles.

If you like them and they perform the function, buy them you have the brows, so continue down the path you have taken.

Its hardly an original example to start with so i cant see the harm in fitting them and seeing what it looks like! Might have found a set so i will post up a pic when fitted and you guys can help me decide! Think i know the answer already given the comments ive had already lol.87mtech27 wrote:Not a fan of the pointless council handles however it's OP's car and he should do as he pleases with he's property and his hard earned cash.

It's YOUR car and IMO YOU should do as YOU like and see fit. It's hardly a major change and can easily be reversed of need be.

Nobody can argue with that...... discussion over..... they pop up on ebay now and then, I assume its the seller that produces them.

You could always fit them in the engine bay, they then won't look out of place
