Carbon Fiber interior door handle grips

My interior door grips are all scratched up.. they already been replaced under warranty.. I am thinking of buying the carbon fiber ones that everyone seem to have but can't find it anywhere online.. anyone selling them or know where to purchase?

I just pried mine off and buffed them on a buffing wheel. They have stayed nice for a while now.

There's a forum vendor called Carbon Fiber Element. They have many posts with photos of these. Search for threads from that vendor and you can't miss them.

I was also looking to do some carbon fiber myself. I've been looking at Carbonmods.com's kits. I watched a few videos and it doesnt look complicated, just needs some patience. Where did you get your supplies/info/etc.?

I had the same problem with mine and ended up making my own.

I pried them off and covered them with 3M DiNoc "carbon fiber" and they look quite good. I am going to re-do the passenger side one to get rid of a small wrinkle though.

Total cost was less than $20.00

I also used a small scrap to cover the faux chrome on the shifter.
