[Advice Needed] F30 Interior door handle rubber melted

[kugarek]

Hi Guys/Gals,

My F30 interior door handle seems to have gotten very sticky and it looks like it is melted.

Any advice on which workshop does restoration or replacements for the handle?
Attached photo to show what has happened.

I was quoted $580 SGD for replacement for both sides. Seems very excessive.

Many thanks!

Hello, this looks bad, it is difficult to replace the door handle, the alternative is to wrap them with high-quality leather, this way you can save money and time as it is way easier to wrap them with leather rather than replace them. I once used these covers from here BMW 3/4 Series F30 Interior Door Handle Leather Covers
It is also fits on the BMW 4 Series F31, the m sport color looks nice.
Easy installation shown in this video:
This is how it looks like:

Hope that helps someone.

Hi all, I bought from AliExpress 2 pairs of clip-on cover for something like US$35 per pair... clip on the melted part in less than 1 minute. Am away right now - will look up and update after Dec 29. You can search AliExpress for BMW F30 parts... I will also take photo when I'm back. Did it end last year after reading a lady owner sharing her purchase in FB.
