Painted Keyhole Cover
Forgive me if this has been asked. I did a search and could only find a 1 series discussion.
Did any of you buy painted keyhole covers? Looks like pic attached. Wondered your opinion. Mine is MW and don't see an option . |

I like the look, but I use the spot where the key goes with one finger to shut the door when the car is nice and clean lol. Only spot where I cant leave a smudge. Am I the only one??

I got one from iND. Had a very hard time trying to get the old one out. Was afraid of breaking something, so I gave up. Haven't gotten back to trying it again.

I have to show these to my friends in fiancee on every car when they close the trunk by putting their hands on the outside of it. Crazy how people don't know they have these. Though I have corrected my fiancee multiple times and she'll still use the outside...

It is almost impossible to close my trunk using these holds on the inside alone. Unless I give it a nice good yank. The trunk seems so light and wont close under its own weight. I use the grips to get it lower, then push on license plate the rest of the way lol.

I find my lid closes super easy with barely any force once it gets to a certain angle.

Either she should look for a new fiancé or you should dial it back. There are much larger things in a relationship to devote your energies to. Me, I use the inside grab handle every time. I have no idea what my wife does. |

This whole trunk-closing thing is getting to be quite Freudian. Perhaps you would like to like down on the couch and explore your feelings about your wife's trunk.
