not feeling it. If you need to paint it, match it to the gunmetal on your rims. It's a signature design piece of the Z, i'd hate to see it disappear from the car.

edit: and man, that pic makes MB look REALLY good. I'm jealous

i agree, now that i am thinking about more and more, i will leave them as is. mainly because i don't feel like dealing with them chipping and stuff later on down the road. i am going to hit the tails up with some tint though. thanks for the compliment on the MB, i love that color, just hard to keep clean.

thanks for the replies guys.

why the hell is painting the handles rice?? it may be ugly (in ur opinion) but it isn't rice. anyways, painting the door handles on any other color Z would get a definite HELL NO from me, but because ur car is black, I think you can get away with it....
