    Ok.
    I did just see that - looks like there is a split on one of the fronts.
    Not sure if he would break up the rears only.
    I just find it hard to damage the ones i got.
    Does it peal off at some stage?

    Hasn't yet and that was a year ago.  I have heard it tends to just wear out but then you just reapply.
     
    Here is a before and after.
     
    Cheers

    Just a thought, Could you get your doorhandles powder coated?

    Um.
    So far as i know powder coating is applied with heat which would not suit internal vinyl handles. I also imagine it would be to hard and therfore crack when flexing due to the soft nature of internal handles.
    As for the outside - well mine are chromed.
