ouch. I kinda know the feeling. When I took my driver side door pull off to wrap in carbon fiber I noticed that one side was cracked. Now I'm always very gentle, using barely any force, and letting the spring??? to do the work.

wow. $32 for passenger side pull and $54 for driver side pull (You could get a full tank of gas with that kind of money). IMO that's pretty expensive for some cheap plastic. You should call a dealership to see what their price is; never know if it might be a little cheaper like the sail panel cover which is $17 online and only $5 at my local dealership. Or maybe check a junk yard first?
