There is a fix for these handles that have broken and the repair is stronger than the original and cannot be seen.
The fix is here on the forum.
Mine's not broken per se, but the silver coating is beginning to peel-off and has the potential to cut you. The problem is only on the left-driver's side and on the back-side of the handle where your fingers always grasp it to pull the door closed.
Took the time this morning to apply Lexol Leather Cleaner & Conditioner to the seats. Typically do this 2x per year. So far, the seats have stayed "like new".
~ Changed out a broken driver side motor mount on the Aero-Blu Roadster...before it started raining. No vibration now. It's almost ready for sale. I don't need 4 of these cars. Last thing to fix is the six inch seam separation on the soft top. It will still need a fresh steering stabilizer, fresh tie rod assembly, fresh brakes, fresh hood support and floor mats. The next owner can do all of that.
Installed double ground cables today, other than that I changed the fuel filter, the antifreeze, the spark plugs, all valve covers sealing, the serpentine belt, installed the bigger TB and the sensor housing, the new TB seal, the original Mercedes engine black cover, cam and crank sensors, rollover protection bars, the diffusers and a new cup holder from Audi TT.

There is a thread about that mod with all the part numbers. If I'll find it and I'll let you know.

And you have to put Xfire original MAF sensor.

Will you give a link to where I can buy one of those Audi cup holders? It looks like a classy bit of kit as opposed to normal aftermarket junk. Thanks!

I'm checking eBay now. I'll be back in a few minutes
Finally installed the LM21 Paddle shifters and repainted the console pieces
reworked the double din. Corrected a few hairline cracks with carbon fibre on the seams.
I’ve included an image of the paint I used for the parts from PPG
I still have to install the bezel around the head unit. Will wait a few days to ensure all connections are solid before I seal it all up.
