Italian Leather Door Handle Covers
18 Attachment(s)
Just received some very sweet authentic Italian Leather door handle covers that help cover the small cracking I have in the plastic chrome wrap. I must say I'm very impressed. The leather is thinner then say the vinyl equivalent and very supple. Fit from the attached velcro is perfect. And the color is almost a perfect match to my Aero Blue. These are styled for the C5 Corvette 1997-04. Company is based in Poland and took 2 weeks from order placement to package receipt. Lots of other material and colors with many options for thread count and color, piping, stripes, custom patterns and even 2 tone. Make sure when you order that you select the "GRAB HANDLE COVER" which are longer and NOT the "DOOR PULL COVERS". Pics at top of page show the difference. Hit the plus next to the item (I got 2 ea.) and hit the "select colors and options" bar at the bottom. Highly Recommended! :cool:
** Latest version covers the entire exposed handle!

Re: Italian Leather Door Handle Covers
These look nice! How well does the velcro hold? Do you have to take the handle off to install?

Re: Italian Leather Door Handle Covers
Thank you for the quick response. I have Wet Okoye Red seat covers (Graphite paint) and am thinking of going with the red with black stitching or black with red stitching. How noticeably is the stitching? Is it worth two toning?

I was gonna inquire if they could make these maybe an inch longer, but after looking at mine, I like the way they look with showing some of the handle, yet they cover more than enough of the handle for your hand to grip. Please post pics once installed soes we can see the results.;) |

Re: Italian Leather Door Handle Covers
I'm thinking Red-Primary, Black Two tone, with opposite thread color and piping. I like the black because while it goes with the charcoal interior, it also goes with the black (on either side of the red) of the seat covers. I'm a little concerned about mating the charcoal. Black is simple because it goes with everything! The red should jazz up the doors.

Re: Italian Leather Door Handle Covers
It looks from the pictures that when you go two-tone with this piece that it ends up being 50-50 with the primary on top and the other on the bottom. Is this correct?
