Dang
alot of people breaking there handles lately.
I have dozens of passenger side handle assys. but the driver side is hard to come by. I have some parts but not completes.
The handles break for a few reasons and its actually possible to prevent one type of failure at least.
If what is broken or cracked is the actual housing area and grab, the most common reason for the failure is that all of the screws are not in place or the wrong screws have been used to install the handle.
It actually takes 8 screws to hold the handle to the door shell. The rear most four screws are gold and have at the top of the thread just under the head a shoulder , the front most four are black.
These screws are much thicker and have a larger head than the more common trim screws used in the nsx.
If you grab your handle to pull the door shut and it flexes at all, you probably do not have all your screws installed or the wrong screws are being used.
The grab assy. is flimsy to begin with and is 2 parts that are heat welded together at the factory, the slightest flex will cause the 2 sections to crack apart.
If your handle has broken in this fashion, I have perfected a way to repair it, however it involves a full refinish of the components in the process.
I have been collecting broken handles and all of the components on the back side of the handles for a while so I may be able to overhaul you existing handles.
I wanted to provide this information to you guys inorder to help out but this is not the correct forum for me to talk about prices etc so pm me if you want, or post pics of your handles front and rear and what is actually failing and I will suggest a way to fix it.
Thanks
Rav
