Talking Chrome Door Handles and Chrome Side Mirrors

Does anyone have any of these options on their car and can post pics of the 2 options??? Preferably on a black car, but any will do.

I can't find any pictures on the internet with these options (besides on the MBUSA website, but those pics are too close to see how it looks on the car)

Thanks everyone!

I just want to see pictures of it because I don't think I've ever seen "real" pictures of those options on a car.

If you have not noticed from the replies adding Chrome is frowned upon here. Personally if that is what you like so be it. I know plenty of people who hate CF on cars and I don't let it bother me.

I don't think frowning is needed. It is personal choice, if you can help, great. If not, I don't see the reason for frowning, put downs, etc....

It's a pain in the *** to take pics of them, but here's pics in black and silver. It's the only chrome accent I've added but really like the way these look.

they look great, (the door handles), because they're only chrome accents, not over the top gaudy stuff

I have OEM chrome mirrors and I think they look great on my silver car. I don't think they will look that great on a darker color.
Audis have polished aluminum mirrors on their S-line models and they look good.

Go with OEM mirrors it is definitely worth the money, as aftermarket chrome mirrors are merely stick on covers not a direct replacement, so the fit is not flush and paint color will show through the gaps.

here are some older pics of my car:




I would avoid adding more chrome if you have a darker car, as it will stand out too much.
I am not of the fan of the chrome door handle scoops, they look out of place. There is a chrome door handle trim which adds chrome to a small portion to the top of the handle, it actually looks not bad. You could find it on formymercedes.com
