Re: {Chrysler 300} Door Handles Painted ?

Thanks Nick for your reply.

This car was repainted probably in the 80's or early 90's.

Perhaps the door handles were taped while on the car and the car was painted with black primer before the finish coats. Perhaps I am seeing old black primer and not flat black paint.

Looking at the photo the visible tape line would be consistent with tape applied to the door handle while it's still on the car.

Have a great day and a great 2023.

I have a bunch of door handles, including a couple NOS ones, and none of them have black paint. I did notice that most of the used ones are missing the little rubber bumper in there.

Happy New Year !!!

I have a question about my 300G outside door handles.
The car is in the paint shop to be painted. I have the door handles because I am cleaning the lock mechanisms and will install them in the New Replacement door handles.

I notice that on the old door handles the undersides are painted with what appears to be Flat Black paint. May I assume this is the way it came from the factory? I believe they are the door handles that are original to the car.
