Everyone is entitled to there opinion/taste but I think any stick on chrome looks Cheesy & Cheap on our trucks.. If you really like the plastic chrome plating look you can buy mirrors and handles already coated (Not stick on's).. The stick on ones Ive seen in the past often leave small pieces of blk plastic exposed and generally dont fit correctly...
X3. My truck had them when I bought it. I hated them. But it did take a heat gun and some elbow grease to get them off. So they should hold for awhile:spit:
x4...
the only chrome handles I like are the "real" ones...the OEM escalade handles, where only the door pull itself is chrome and the rest of the handle bucket is painted.

Agreed with chrome or billet handles and painted bezels. As far as the mirrors...anything but chrome. 
I have a customer with all that crapp on his LML, he is constantly having to turn around and go pick up pieces that fly off into traffic like chrome frisbees...:rofl:
So all im hearing from all of this is be that guy and buy 'em! LOL :roflmao:
Def gonna go with everything color matched instead. ultimately i think with the color of my truck it will better color matched anyways.

I just bought a 06 Silver Birch LBZ a couple weeks back that is currently in the body shop getting everything color matched. I am having all the plastic sanded smooth, (Tow mirrors, upper/lower front bumper plastics, door handles, tail gate handle, tail gate top guard and rear bumper plastics are all getting color matched once sanded smooth. The fender flares were already factory color matched. I should have it back mid week if you want to see some pics to get a idea how yours will look?
As promised Horrible cell pic and Truck still has a long way to go, wheels, tires, lights, etc but this should give you a idea..

Looks great :thumb: How much did they charge if you don't mind me asking? I'm getting ready to have mine done and I'm trying to get an idea of what a fair price is.
As promised
Ohh yea...:woott:
Looks killer buddy...
Paint shop rates are all over the board and the color has alot to do with it. I have around $700.00 in the color match FYI...
Thanks man! I think it's going to look pretty good when finished up
Thanks bud, that's about what I figured it should cost. Mine is only ext. cab so I only have 3 handles to be painted. A small local paint shop that I heard a few good things about quoted me $150 plus paint for my mirrors, door handles, and tailgate handle (im leaving the bumpers and fender flares black so I'm going to do them myself) if I took everything off and brought it to him. Seemed a little too cheap to me and body work is one of the things where you get what you pay for so I'm still unsure.
