This is my current look.
![](https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/t31.0-8/1779993_10202562725843920_1874846002_o.jpg)
I'm thinking about changing my door handles and side mirrors.
There are 3 combinations I'm thinking about.
Which one do you think would look best?
1) Carbon Fiber Side Mirrors & Carbon Fiber Door Handles
(would this be too much? CF overkill?)
2) Glossy Black Side Mirrors & Glossy Black Door Handles
(add contrast to the CF + complement my reflectors & emblems)
3) Glossy Black Door Handles, Leave Side Mirrors Stock Color
(add some contrast + match my reflectors & emblems)
Thanks for your input and help guys!

I'm not a fan of color matching the handles but only because I enjoy the contrast aspect more.
Regardless, it seems like the majority of you are leaning towards leaving my mirrors stock and changing my door handles.
With that being said, looks like I will be painting my door handles glossy black.
Once again, thanks for your help guys! Appreciate it.

4. Color match door handles, leave rest alone.

For sure do not paint the mirrors. They always match the body unless you are running an off-road vehicle.
Color-matched door handles are best followed by black. Silver’s advantage is less maintenance.

I'm just curious, where do you plan on getting CF mirrors from if you get them? I've been looking for a set but haven't found any....BTW I think CF door handles and mirror would look good.
I have a CF accents on my car, so I say this from experience. The difference between the black (especially if it's glossy) and the cf color will be noticeable. Unless you don't mind that I'd just stick with one. Either go all black or all carbon. Clean car though, keep it up..

carbon fiber mirror covers, on original mirrors,
carbon fiber door handles,
carbon fiber B pillars.
This then ties in with your carbon fiber lip.
