944 PORSCHE TURBO DOOR HANDLES AVAILABLE
« on: 04 February 2012, 15:58 »
Hi guys.
 [COLOR="Red"]This is not advertising or spam lol.[/COLOR]

I am in the process of having sets of  lost wax cast 944 turbo (porsche engraved style)  door handles done.
They are Going to be available in chrome or satin Black.
The twist is Iv had the pattern made from  MK2 door handles so these are direct fitments and still retain your VW locks.

I haven't come up with a price for sets yet as I haven't priced the whole process yet.
I have a batch of 5 pairs being lost wax cast now as testers.

The 1st run will be 50 sets so i was wondering who would be interested in pencilling there names down for the 1st batch!
If there is enough interest i will look into the MK1 and even rear (non lock barrel ) pairs done for 4 doors.

Hope these are any use to anyone.
If so you can reply on here or PM me.
If you no anyone that would be interested in distribution or any v dub clubs could you please pass it on.?!
 
P.S. This project has come about as next door to my workshop is a pattern maker who I exchanged work for on his 74 911 RS to do the pattern for me on the mk2 handles. 
Regards
Scott

Looks like advertising.  :huh:

Why would you want door handles with Porsche information on them?  It's quite obvious it's a Golf from the rest of the car.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

A bit of a gamble these handles as nothing works as well as OEM. You can pick up non script Porsche handles for little money.
