In my "humble" opinion, I don't like body color-matched door handles. They are trim items and should be different from the body color. Now, I'll probably get flamed for this but here goes...

Having the entire car be one color (please read: entire car), it kind of looks like a cheap chevy pick-up from the late eighties.

Hey no worries, to each their own.

I could have lived with a sleek chrome door handle had they been the size and shape of the GTR / Aston Martin door handle, but IMHO they are a big clunky piece that takes away from the lines of the car.

You are very right in saying everything is subjective, particularly where appearance is concerned.

I specifically went red on the calipers to add some contrast, when I blacked out the door handles. I'll also be having some work done on the headlights to add some more red contrast into the car.

Hopefully it all works out the way I have envisioned.
