I decided to give the inner door handle housings a textured paint coating instead of the gloss black and I chrome wrap the handles over the silver paint. These can be used in both Diablo and Murci

I did all this stuff about 2 years ago and just stored it untill needed, I just got some 1 /14 width steel bar not very thick, got it from home depot, and lenght is about 3 3/8,  cut of the loop handle left the base, drilled 2 holes for flat head sheet metal screws, made them flush to the bar, bashed the rear end of the bar to curve around the back base just a little, and just a little bondo as filler then multiple coats of silver paint and gloss, as for the housing you will have to make a mold from wood, and glaze it, wax it. black gelcoat, then lay fiberglass, pretty fun easy stuff...

I've been wondering about this I saw it in your photobucket but pics are hard to see, not sure what you did to make the parts
what about the black box the handle is in?

Don't Throw away those original Fiero door handles! A builder in canada showed me this idea, Works great for both Diablo and Murcie's, Cheap a easy to do.
