Default Alternative to Escky handles.

Well i get back to work from vaction and i see some new stuff in the truck section. I see some Bully Stainless door handle covers. Not those ugly whole handle cover, just the throw.

I wouldnt have got them unless they were stainless, i hate that plastic ABS chrome plastic ****.

Well they will also only cost about $10-11.

I buy them and prep the handles this mouring and throw them on. They look very clean and not tacky. They follow the lines of the handle perfect and fit GREAT,only way you can tell they are a cover if you look on the very inner edge of the handle. Which cant be seen unless you right on top of them looking inside the handle.

Dont look cheap by and means and are a cheaper way to have look alike Escky handles.

Havent been driving alot too much for gas. I did take it for a 10 miles highway cruise today... got to 112 and the highway downshifts are really nice.

I planned to do that too, link? For right now, I just have my buckets painted white, and the pulls painted metalic black. It actually looks pretty good, but not what I was planning to do. BTW looks good.
