I had my trim vinyled for a while but I eventually took it off because I felt it made the car look too plain. Looking at the pics above, with the black door handles makes it look even more plain to me.

^^ I mostly disagree with joeboe because of his loose grip on reality on account of all the heroin he does.

^^ I mostly agree with the fact I tend to loosen my grip on reality after I see opbodyboarding rofl everyday.

^^ I'll have to agree to disagree with my friend Joeseph Boeseph on the point that I find it creepy that he sees me rofl every day. My rofling is private and not a show to be enjoyed by the likes of a former circus carny.

^^ I concur with your previous statement about the mild creepyness of watching your private rofl sessions, however how can one not be mildly smitten with a cute midget who drops to the floor and laughs hysterically every morning before entering his entry level luxury sedan.

I think if the chrome window trim got left behind but the handles color matched it would look good....mind you this was because an MB C350 rolled up next to me today and made me think chrome door handles are trying toooooo hard

i like the contrast that the window trim and the handles give on a darker colored car. on silver/white you can't really tell as much. just my opinion. i know no one cares.
