Well I bought myself a Christmas gift yesterday and ordered the BT polished door-pull bezels. Man these things look great on the website. I can't wait till they get here and can install them. Has anyone else bought these yet? And if so, can you post-up some pics! I also have the BT polished speaker rings so the polished door-pulls will be a nice compliment to them. Finally, I'll have some door-panels that look pretty good.:thumbsup:

Huh, didn't see this thread. I want to get both since the panels look pretty damn plain. I was even thinking of getting them customized somewhat. Steve, any pics of the speaker rings?

Ignoring my threads I see!!! I don't have any pics of the speaker rings, but once I get my polished door-pull bezels installed I'll take some pics and post-em up. Bezels were shipped today from BT, so hopefully I'll get them before Christmas.

These aren't actually the door-pulls themselves, but are polished rings that go around the physical door-latch pull(chrome) that actually opens up the door. Go to BT's website to see what I'm talking about...they look good.

Well I installed the BT door-pull bezels yesterday along with my BT speaker rings again(2nd time around). I had problems with installing both for various reasons which I won't get into unless you guys really want to know. Anyways here's some pics.

Damn Steve! Thanks for the pics brotha...I'm really liking that a lot. You even made sure to clean the ride before posting pics. But yes, I'm going to trouble you for the scoop on what happened with the install of them...I'm assuming they weren't sticking very well?

Steve, how much did you pay for all 4?

Well here it goes...I bought the speaker rings a few months ago on the BT group buy and paid about $89 for them. BT states to install them with clear silicone adhesive which I bought from the local auto-parts store. I used the silicone and they only stayed attached for about a month and then both fell off. I called BT and they sent me out another pair and told me to try some sort of adhesive primer or something like that which I could never find. I never tried to install the new rings until I bought the door-pull bezels last week. I used a plastic superglue epoxy to attach the speaker rings and they seem well attached now.

The tried installing one of the door-pull bezels when it was cold and the temp was very cold outside also...it didn't stick to the door panel very well at all. I removed the BT supplied double-sided tape(5 in total were installed by BT). I bought some heavy-duty double-sided tape from Home Depot and then installed 9 pieces of tape in total to the ring and installed it - is attached very well at this time. The other 3 remaining door-pull bezels I just added 4 additional pieces of tape to the 5 that are already on the bezel and then installed...these are sticking very well now. I think the cold weather has something to do with the stickiness of the BT supplied adhesive tape on the rings, but if you ever get them I would suggest installing a few more pieces of tape for good measure. And yes....I did clean the door-panels first before I took those pics!LOL :D Almost forgot...I spent $69 total for the 4 polished door-pull bezels. I bought them with BT's holiday 15% discount and free shipping that ended on 12/31/08. I also purchased the shift-plate bezel in satin polish which I haven't received yet. I guess I'll take pics of it also when I get it installed.

Well, I asked about the price because lowrider or whomever he is was selling his on LXF and I was the first to PM him like 20 minutes after he posted the thread first thing in the morning. He finally gets back to me and says he was probably going to sell them to someone but if he didn't get the money by that evening, he'd pm me back. I'm thinking if you had someone in mind (he said it was a guy who purchased something from him earlier in the week) then wtf would you post the for sale thread and waste my time jackass. I pm'd him back with something to that effect. Douche. Anyways, he was asking 50 for the 4 door rings in satin.

The polished rings are more money, but look alot better IMO and better match the chrome door-pull handle. Just wait until BT has another discount and then get the polished ones like I have. On the other hand...you should've gotten them when the discount was still on douche bag!!!!!!:drool:

Well, that makes me feel better as I'll get the polished ones now for sure. On another note, I've been all about speed.

I forget what the panels look like on a 300, but I'm guessing there's nothin that BT can do to dress them up more?

Puck you pucker!!!!!!!! Hahahha, j/k! Hey, sorry I missed this thread, been out of it for a while. So, they look sweet, very nice! Now, get yourself the 300 door pulls and you'll be set. Here's what my doors look like, I've added the 300 door pulls, 22Elite arm rest pads, some Carbon by Design pieces and the BT door sills (not the greatest pix but you get the point) ...

Hey Scotty, where did you get those arm rest pads on the doors?

22Elite. Dave (Quick) has them and I saw them in person and really liked them so I ordered them up (our doors are WAY too plain), took a few weeks as they make them to order. They're nice but expensive, $199 I think they were, check their site.

I'm glad you took some pics of the BT satin door sills. I've been looking at these for a long time, but BT doesn't have any decent pics of these on their site. These aren't the designer series are they? Also, I just installed my BT satin shift plate today...looks good, but the only thing I'm not totally fond of is that it raises the shift plate chrome trim ring some so that it doesn't sit as low as it did before. I'll take some pics of this sometime soon and post-em up.

WOW! 199 bucks for those things? Freakin' scam...they do look good though Scott...but hell, even though I don't know what I'm doing, I can get those made for half that cost. How hard could it possibly be? I mean, template, cut, cut material...glue. Done. Fuck!

Agreed, but like all other 22Elite stuff it's high quality and first class all the way ... you get what you pay for. Just don't think about the price, that's what I do, hahaha. Our doors are soooooooooooo plain they look sick, I HATE them and HAD to do something. I think sometimes I might have done too much now but I can always pull off what I've done. Personally, if I had to do over and I had more money I'd go for the black "Bee" lower door panels, those look sweet and hide all the things "not" there.

BTW Milan, here's the link to 22elite if you're interested ...

I've ALWAYS been more go than show, but if money wasn't a concern, I'd definitely get those. From the site, they do look to be really good quality though. I totally agree with you that our doors look like garbage. Complete and utter garbage. Nothing a little dress can't fix.....but preferably one of the female persuasion hehehehe. :Scottwax1:
