Door handles and window trim

Im getting a gloss black emblem less grille in a couple days. Im thinking of doing something with the door handles and the chrome trim. Here are the options
1) leave as is
2) gloss black vinyl both
3) Body color door handles, paint window trim gloss black
4) only paint window trim black chrome.
5) body color window trim

Im leaning towards #3 the most. What do you guys think would make the car look cleaner? Any suggestions welcome

If your theme is black and blue then:

Color match door handles
Black Gloss/Flat Trim on the window trim
Black headlights


If your theme is complete blue on top then:

Color match door handles
Black Gloss/Flat on the window trim
Color match headlights
Color match grill

You have a dark color, so you can pull off all of themes. But to answer your question, #3. Good luck!

I would go with Door handles color matched, trim to black, and mirror bases color matched

option 1.

The car needs some contrast, instead of a overwhelming black/blue theme, IMHO.
