I hope your being sarcastic cause this is hella funny.

O.P. - As others have said YOUR car YOUR call. Make a choice and roll with it.

yep, it's whatever....can't see it from my house.......when I think chrome door handles, I think early 90's Chevy short bed flare side PU with old busted-azz ARE 15 inch hurricanes on some retarded offset rollin 255/75/60's raised white letters on the outside.......sticking out like a mal-formed bulldog.

i'm not a fan of chrome door handles for this car but have had them on a previous vehicle i had because i thought it looked nice on that one... just take a look at some pics and decide if you like it, don't worry bout what none of these guys say...

I wouldn't, there's a reason why they didn't put them on at the factory

Get springs, I need to install mine come to think of it.

why don't u do a quick p-chop to see if you'd like the look or not?

i agree, i have a blk 2GS and if anything i would go black chrome door handles and trunk bar, since I already have the black chrome anniversary grille. I just wonder if it would be too subtle a mod to justify it.
