I feel ya Vivek. I really like my OEM color too. Would be tough to change up.

What do you think of black mirrors? Would go with the other black accents.

I think you should keep the TB and black theme as others have mentioned.

To add contrast, you should do a flat black on all the blacks on the car. Gold flakes too if you're gangsta enough

It looks good in my brain right now, but others might not think so LOL

Door handles absolutely has to be body color, Jesse forsure can do that.

Color matched door handles, matte black trim around the windows, matte black bases, gloss black mirrors (maybe matte black), gloss black roof, matte black diffuser, matte black vents on the hood...oh and get rid of the roof spoiler

A gloss black will be harder to see/stand out against TB which is why I was going with more matte black.

I would color match everything and black out the roof... If you want to get rid of some chrome but not all, IMO, leave the door handles and paint the window trim. It'll retain a classier, more uniform look since the door handles will always stick out, but the door trim can blend in.
