Product Description
Honda Civic and CR-V Chrome Door Handle Cover Kit, 8 Pieces (DH12235)
Honda owners get a two-for-one with DH12235. QAA catalogs this eight-piece chrome door handle cover kit for both the Honda Civic and the Honda CR-V in overlapping model years, so the same covers are listed for a car and an SUV from the same brand. If either one is in your driveway, these covers turn its handles bright chrome.
Fitment
QAA lists two vehicles:
- Honda Civic, 4-door, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015
- Honda CR-V, 4-door, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016
Both rows in the catalog name sedan and SUV body styles together, so the 4-door detail and the model year are the things to confirm. Only 4-door vehicles are listed here, and the year ranges differ slightly between the two models, so check yours against the right row. When in doubt, call us before ordering.
How cover kits work
A door handle cover kit fits over the existing exterior handles and the area around them. Instead of replacing the handles, it changes their finish to chrome. On a 4-door vehicle, eight pieces cover the handles and their surrounds. The catalog does not detail each piece individually, so the product photos are the guide to the layout and to any key openings.
Material
The covers are made of chrome plated ABS plastic with a polished finish, and they are imported. ABS is a rigid plastic that molds well to a handle's curves, and the chrome plating provides the mirror shine. This differs from the polished stainless steel used for much of QAA's other trim.
Installation
Each cover attaches with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Because handles are touched constantly, they carry oils that weaken adhesion, so clean each one thoroughly with a degreaser and let it dry. Dry-fit each cover, then seat it with firm, even pressure. Finish one door at a time, and check each cover from a few angles. The Installation tab covers the full process and temperature tips.
Why chrome handles
Handles sit right at eye level, and they are the part of the car you touch every day. Chrome covers give them a brighter, more upscale look, and on a Civic or CR-V they tie in with any chrome already on the grille or windows.
Companion trim
The catalog does not list other QAA parts with this SKU, so the Fitment tab shows only DH12235. Call us and we can look up other trim for your Civic or CR-V.
Before you buy
Check your model, your year, and that you have a 4-door. Then look at the product photos next to your own handles. If everything matches, you are ready to order. If you own both a Civic and a CR-V from these years, one kit per vehicle gives both the same chrome look.

Installation tips: Door Handle Cover Kit
- Unpack all 8 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
