thanks for sharing, very good video

Thank you for sharing the great video. I bought cheap plastic black door handle covers. They look cheap. I loved the look of your black-painted handle. I just installed Alphrex alpha black headlight assemblies, which look fantastic and provide much better lighting. New lights and black handles will make this car look amazing. Thank you!

Wow, you’re the first one who has shown how to replace the chrome insert only. Thanks! Quick questions, what adhesive did you use? Did you remove the old adhesive first?

[@canadacristy]

Hi! I just need to replace the chrome part only as well … can you provide a link to buy the handle where the chrome part pops off ? I can’t seem to find one. Thank you !

Any chance you have video on the drivers side front door? Not clear how to remove the sensor from the handle. Was hoping you might know since you put out this awesome video.

[@JonathanMarkMorgan]

I swapped the original sensor to the new handle only on the passenger front door. I don't have video of this, though. Swapping the original sensor wasn't difficult, but reinstallation of the handle to the front door does have a few more challenges than the rear door. It's all do-able, though.

I had rock chipped on the chrome trim at the front grille of my 22 GX460. It bothers me by looking at it. I like to replace the chrome trim only. But I don’t think that chrome piece is separated from the grille. I’m thinking that I want to paint it with matte black color. I think it’d be better instead of plastic dip. What should I do for the paint to stick on chrome and last long time. Any suggestions. Thanks

@@haduong5828 I would lightly scuff the chrome with sandpaper, to give the new paint some small scratches to hold on to. You'll also want to thoroughly clean the part, after scuffing, with isopropyl alcohol.

Any company smart enough to make the covers in metal alloy materials anymore. I bought a used GX460 with a missing cover and they are some kind of allot metal aluminum. I went to purchase on ebay and Amazon and all the crap junk on the market is flimsy plastic. I need metal metallic black. Made in China crap is pissing me off!
