Clear Bra on door handles?

Anyone get this done? It makes sense but how durable will it be since it gets touch so often? thanks

Thumbs up clear film on door handles...

I have it on the handles and inner door "well" as well as the gas tank flap. My C2 is black and I know from experience, the doors take a beating..my wife has a large engagement ring that has a tendency to hit the handle before her finger.
I had an 07 SC430 Lexus, black and had the clear film installed-but not on the handles. Sure enough, after 2 years, both handles had visible scratches-at least visible to an **** owner like me.
Anyway, as far as holding up, I had my film installed the end of June and I have 2,500 miles. My vehicle is almost always under cover in my garage but the film looks like it did on day 1- virtually undetectable.

09, C2, black on black, PDK, sports chrono, memory seat, 19" S wheels, XM satellite, bluetooth, Bose

B R A N D X® is infamous around these parts
I had my door handles wrapped because I had picked up two rock chips on the passenger side handle on my 4 year old Boxster S by the time I traded it in. The film is holding up very well so far. This is a relatively high wear area subject to damage when passing trucks on the freeway and along with having the A pillars done up to terminate in a line that corresponds with the roof rack flaps are excellent additions to a regular full front bra.

Another area to consider is the sunroof so that it is protected when ****ed open/up while driving on the freeway/interstate. I have not had this area done, but as a result, I never crack open my sunroof unless I'm on a back road or driving around town at slower speeds.

Recommended.
