its possible. not sure if any companies have a conversion kit. you can prob find the door handles in the junk yard for cheap. not sure how to mount them or get them to work.

What year GTR, and do you mean interior or exterior handles?

If you mean current-gen exterior handles.... it's probably a ton of work because our cars have that recessed area under the door handle that would basically need to go away and become flat and then you'd need to cut an opening into the door to accommodate that flip out exterior door handle assembly.

I personally wouldn't venture into anything like this because cold weather and iced over doors can put some serious strain on door handles and I feel like that GTR handle isn't the best for "handling" this. Haha.

anything is possible with enough time and money. really depends on what you want to do. to get all that body work done might as well just shave them completely, either way you would need to repaint or vinyl wrap as well. much more involved then just swapping

Yes but my doors are fibreglass and these require welding do you think these can be attached and secured?

it is possible to attach those to your doors but i think it would be a headache to constantly fix them and have them attach securely. i dont think its worth the time or effort
