Hey folks,

Painted the door handles and keyless entry pad on my '93 today. Looks 
excellent... used the same flat black paint I used on the mirrors, trim, 
and windshield wipers. Looks perfectly stock.

Prepping and taping was a pain, especially with the keyless entry pad. But 
I took my time and it looks really good. Much better than using the Wurth 
rubber care every week to keep them black... that works great but doesn't 
keep them looking good for a long time in the heat here.

Also, I have a small spot of curb rash on one of my front rims (grey 
slicers) from the previous owner... is there a method of fixing this? I 
suppose I could file it down and paint it, but I'm afraid to touch those 
beautiful rims without picking some minds first.
