i prefer having the handles black just because they are boxy and dont "flow with the lines" If you were to swap the door handles to some flush ones that are a little more curvy, i think it would look better if they were painted body color

What about chrome on a black car? It'd be solid black, but w/ chrome door handles (not the key, just the handle....or even the key too I guess, lol). ANyoen have any pics of this? I have wondered a lot about it and tried to visualize it but am still not sure...

4th gen handles will bolt in and look quite nice.
i would spray paint them with a satin black out of a rattle can..... much easier to touch up in the future, than have to pull it and take it down to the paint shop.

I like the handles staying black, our doors are very long and theres not much to break up the side of our cars so they do that nicely.
Please for the love of *** dont ever do this

I have my handles the same color as my car and I love it. I buddy has a camaro and he had the black handles on his white (same color as I do) car and it just really stands out more than they already do I think. I would really recommmend it to anyone.
