Default Exterior Door Handles
I have a 2001 XK8 and the exterior door handles become too hot to touch in the summer sun. You can pratically burn your fingers opening the doors. Any suggestions?

Lol.
You could put some foam tape on underside of door handle where no one can see it and will prevent your little piggies from frying when you open door.
