Door Handle Covers? 'stick on type'

I collect my RRS from the dealers on Saturday, this will be my first RRS, can't wait! Its a 2006 RRS TDV6 HSE - Java Black with cream interior, 93k on the clock. The door handles are a little scratched, has anyone tried the 'stick on' type door handle covers? Are they any good? Just thought i would ask on the forum before forking out for a set.

You need to find out what handles are on you Sport 1 piece or 2 Question the earlier RRS had a 1 piece handle & was a slightly different shape. As soon as you know then a decision can be made - I changed my 1 piece to a 2 piece set now in future all I ever need to change are the skins Thumbs Up 16MY Estoril Blue SVR.............

Changed mine to two pieces as well, cheaper than main stealers, think they're about £80 if I recall, but make a huge difference.

Yeah Peachy I just found out that there were two different type handles on the earlier models.....Mine was registered in Jan 06 i'm sure, so I will need to check the handle type out come Saturday when I get my hands on the RSS.

Is it a hard job to change them from the one piece to the two piece?

Sorry mine WE'RE two pieces handles, just looked at the old pics, I broke the old handles when I was taking off the old grey ones, the new black gloss set just clipped on easily.
Really was 15 minute job.

@Mike D....Looks like mine could well be the one piece handles according to Dhups post......I was kinda hoping they would be the two piece as the clip on method sounds simple enough to do. I'll know for sure on Saturday,
