Just thought I would share this. I made these using 1 inch aluminum flat stock from Home Depot. I took a 2x6 and rounded the edges using a grinder to make an impression of the door handle. Then I hammered the flatstock into shape on the 2x6.
The end caps I got from Einmalig (http://www.einmaligparts.com/Rose-Satin-Black31_p_150763.html) for 4.23 a piece. These just clip onto the handle ends. They are slightly narrower the 1 inch though. About 7/8 inch, so I just used the bench grinder to narrow them. Other than that they fit great.
As far as finishing I glued a piece of thin high density foam to the top and wrapped them in black vinyl. I did stitch the back to keep it tight.
I've had these on my car for about two years now.

Looks good.

Clever idea. Have to keep that one for future project. I am new, what is the background on the power window upgrade?

It is a Spal deluxe window kit. The car is a 72 but I upgraded to the later style window regulators. They are far better in my opinion.

I like the power windows...thinking of doing the same.

I used the older 911 switches

WOW

That is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO nice

Love to see a/your build thread on the power windows

Great job! everything looks like it was meant to be!

Looks nice!

Saving weight for the electric window motor?
