Default Please hell, door handle question...

Ok i know this gets kicked around a lot...

I have an 03 silverado...I need new door handles for my front, both sides...I'm looking for the smooth ready to paint, WITHOUT the keyholes...i've seen them on trucks around, but where can i find them? Or does anyone have part #'s? I want to color match them, but they do NOT make them already painted for my truck color (carmine red) i know, i've looked everywhere.

I have oem no key holes on mine... But recently when i painted my mirrors and roll pan i painted 1 of my factory handles with the lock and keyhole white to replace my drivers side one. I dont like the idea of a locked truck with a dead battey. 100$+ locksmith bill....

How about keys inside your truck with shaved handles. Or shaved handles with a dead battery. Or shaved handles and the door frozen shut.... Shaved handles just aren't worth it

Not to mention that most drag strips don't allow shaved-handle vehicles to race. Around here anyway.

To the OP, rear-door Tahoe handles should work. I haven't done it, but know some guys who have.

Just wondering. Did you paint your truck Carmine Red? I haven't found an RPO code for Carmine as an option for Chevy trucks.

My 03 has 74U rpo code in glove box which is Victory Red.

or is Carmine red that Maroon looking color?
