[pls can you help, photoshop god?
and for those that are interested, below is the link to the chrome handle covers I'm looking at buying. Only $6.99, but the thing that kills is the $15 shipping, effectively tripling its price!
IMO it's not that it will look tacky on red. It looks tacky to add chrome door handles when there is no other chrome on the car sides. It might make more sense the car had "chrome" window surrounds.
Often it also looks cheap to add purely cosmetic bling, more so on a base level car. (plus your being cheap by not wanting too pay $25 for your cheap door handles)
Also consider this - there was a time when body color painted would have been an upgrade from black plastic door handles and trim. I think more vehicles are coming like this now. In other words - your door handles are fine as is. Look at a Porsche or other high end sports car and see how much chrome there ISNT.
In the end you have to do what makes you happy - its your money and your car. Good Luck.
