I have some black door handles from an rs turbo... are they the same and would they look better.

The red on the door handles has faded and i think they are supposed to be black anyway.

Sounds like you need a decent chip if its as flat as a fart off boost.

What chip is in it now ?

shockingly flat off boost, could be worst ive ever drove but last owner thought it was good.

Ebony what is the brass plaque on the front of the engine bay?

And yes, black door handles would look less... home made.
