If you change the color of the wheels, then yeah, it won't work as well. I'm sticking with stock-colored silver wheels though as they compliment the car (which is one of the criteria for picking a wheel for me).
I hear you on that, I'm looking for a MB Z with Gloss Black rims w. a Chrome Lip, so I dunno how the matte grey handles are gonna work, I always thought of them as an eyesore from the 350, but thats just me...

my car is in the body shop right now having them color matched. That and the tail lights tinted.

That's why I chose Brilliant Silver. I was also concerned about the door handles. I was gonna jus remove them, but I luv the keyless entry.

I hate they are plastic, and not metal...

Polished stainless would look freaking awesome.

Yeah, but you would look stupid putting oven mits on to open your car door.

OK, cast aluminum. Something metal. Even if it had a clearcoat on it.

Plastic = cheap out.

I posted another thread with my finished painted door handles. THey are not that hard to take off. I wrote how you can do it. on it as well. But then again if you got to ask how to take it off then i don't think you should really be doing it. All door handles are pretty much the same. If you've taken one off then you can do them all especially if you ever replaced a honda one.

jose, that looks awesome now. Can almost not even see them unless you specifically look for them, which might be the case since they are pretty standout-ish about the Z lol Looks great!

those yellow ones are bad-***. Definitely completes the car!!
