Outer door handles
I see all the aftermarket inner door handles (Rennline, TRE etc) and have looked for outers. I see nothing out there so if anyone knows if such a thing exists please let me know. Just thought a nice lightweight perforated set would look trick on my race car, Thanks

Our host sells genuine Porsche and after market door handles.
People here have drilled theirs... I must admit I've been tempted to do mine but they're in good condition.

Looks like the after market ones are temporarily unavaidable.

I don't want aftermarket reproduction ones, I was meaning like a billet perforated set. Not a bad idea to modify a set of stock ones, I didn't think of that. Thanks, may get creative this winter..

I don't have a photo but I've seen a pair that were made from flat aluminium bar made from scratch by hand. They were very simple with no key to unlock the car. Very light with progressive holes. The owner used a remote to lock and un lock the car... Not sure what he'd do if the battery ever gave up.

I will do more looking on internet this weekend when I have more time. Being a full race car I won't need a lock so will make it easier for me to fabricate something

Look on the thread by Magnus. He drilled his early outer door handles and they look great!
