Grazio Chrome Window Frame and Door Handle
HI,
I saw that Grazio has new products for Toyota 86/FRS/BRZ. These chrome Window Frame and door handle looks great for me. However, it is very expensive. Do we have any aftermarket parts or any shop that can do the customize work or any easy DIY plan which close to these products in US? Please let me know. Thanks. ps. I did consider the chrome vinyl wrap, but the window frame is not a flat surface. I am not sure that can be done or not. I also consider painting. However, someone mention that the chrome paint is easily to fade. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showpost.php?p=799143&postcount=22 Any more commend and suggestion? Thanks again.

I saw these too and am allso interested in them. I also agree that they are rediculosly exspensive. I would love to get them but unless the get cheaper I might just try a wrap. And the vinyl can wrap around different shapes. Look on youtube, there are tones of videos that show people wrapping the vent bezels which are no where near flat objects

I planned to do carbon fiber wrap the front nose, sider vent and rear diffuser before and post here. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=30506 Some one response and told me will not work. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showpost.php?p=778042&postcount=3 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showpost.php?p=782874&postcount=7 I thought that might need the flat surface to do the vinyl wrap. Any suggestion for the brand of chrome vinyl wrap? Do you prefer the light or dark chrome? Will you plan to do chrome wrap on both window frame and door handle? Thanks. |

Very nice products, but too expensive to buy in the U.S. They're expensive to start and the exchange rate makes it even worse

Money is better spent elsewhere none of their stuff is worth it. Look at their tail lights jesus you are basically paying for another tail light the same as yours and with some tint on them... Lol i really dont get why people would want to buy from this company... i guess im hating...

I also very surprise that black chrome is much expensive than the gray one.
