Default 74 Custom trim option

With custom trim I see that cars have door handle accents. Where can I buy these in Admiralty blue?

Thanks in advance

Either, get some of the 3M strip tape that you can paint yourself and cut to length, or find some matching dark blue vinyl sheet, and cut to size.

There's various repro versions available but they simply offer a 'dark blue'. Some GM originals were actually painted, others were possibly just a close match in vinyl tape. You might find they are already suitable, make sure you get the longer door handle type. But would expect the typical dark blue tape is still not dark enough for AB.

I'm not sure which the original Admiralty Blue used, expect the latter based on original GM part.

Hopefully someone who has actually tried this on their Admiralty blue '74 will respond. Or anyone with dark blue.

Bought these from Fbody Warehouse for my 74 admiralty blue bird. The background is my trunk lid not a mirror.

Yep, that's what I suspected. And the backing to the stickers almost look like door handles to compare.

Just a tidbit of trivia (1970 though):
