Well, for a set of primed door handles its about $80 and the primed mirror caps are about $60 for the pair. Paint for those should run you close to $250-300.

$600 is a bit overkill unless you had them plated with gold before you painted them, lol.

Nowhere. He was asking for a trunk lid liner.

Nowhere. He was asking for a trunk lid liner.
I had my 3dcarbon fornt lip painted at the same time whihc added $110(forgot about that).
Handles are $19.87x4 then the bezels you must get with them are $11.68x4
Then the mirror caps are $29.59 and $27.93.
I was quoted anywhere from $200 to $589 to have the 4 handles painted and the 3dcarbon front lip painted. (keep in mind you get what you pay for and dont want it flawed in a year)

I thought he was refering to the trunk organizer and just called it a trunk liner because he quoted your pic lol

Yeah that's a good idea. I know it will be a pain in te ass but I'm thinking of removing my door handles and painting them myself

You cannot paint the black abs plastic handles. Well you can but the quality of the paintjob and the longitivty of the paint would be horrible. I had the chrome door handle covers painted gloss black for the longest before I got mine done body matched.

You can. You just have to prep them properly and clearcoat them. It's the same plastic as out chrome grills which most of us on here painted black

If it is that simple then go for it(=
There is a reason the parts come chrome, black abs, or primed via ford(=
