I have the ability to possibly manufacture some replacement door handle flaps out of steel. Would there be much interest in these at around $30-$40 each? Price would include shipping.
If I get enough people committed to buying them I could get a batch going. Of course I will have a prototype made and post some pictures first. UPDATE: I sold my car a while back and never continued with this project. If I ever get another 914, perhaps I'll come back to it. |

Would you be able to chrome plate them?
For $30-40 I think people will buy them. Hell I'll take 5 for future handle repairs. Tell us more. Will you machine these or cast them? |

They would be cut in three pieces out of steel by a laser CNC, and then the prongs would be welded on. I was thinking of either making it out of stainless steel and polishing that, or getting chrome paint, since I don't have direct access to the equipment to do actual chrome plating. I'll have to see how the color compares to the original. |
