oh_1_xtremeblazer · 08-27-2009, 11:45 AM

IDk if i want to shave my door handles or just smooth them and paint them. It's on a 2001 blazer xtreme space blue metallic

ive honestly never been a fan of shaved handles.

I think a nice set of painted handles is nice! but def shave the ass end.

shave them, idk why is everyone is obsessed with painting them. to me leaving the door handle on a truck or painting it looks unfinished

i just sold my grant kustoms door handle fillers, is this blazer your daily even for the harsh winters we get here in indy? If so i say keep the handles for sure smooth and paint em. theirs an extreme blazer that lives in brownsburg ind w/shaved handles it looks real good..but overall its up to you.

Big_Bake · 09-08-2009, 04:57 PM

shave them if you have the money to get the bodywork and paint done right.

i love my AVS bolt in actuators, they haven't failed me in 2+ years. every time i hit the button, the latch opens.

hoppy45 · 09-11-2009, 05:33 PM

do the solenoids fail in the winter alot?

you can mount solenoids inside cab or go with actuators. The bolt in kit uses actuators.

Mr.woodscrewsNbondo · 09-23-2009, 12:18 AM
