But its up to you man. If you want, and you like it, then go for it. I say it wouldnt be bad, cuz its not like your putting chrom all over the door. Just dont get to carried away.

chrome trim and **** is not so much ricey as it is gaudy. but someone should do a photo shop on those handles and see what it looks like. that might actually look cool.

Chrome is a little more ghetto than rice. I think if the Cobalt had some "chrome" on it stock (like the HHR and its grille) then the door handles would go good on it.

this is why I didn't go with the high rise spoiler... oh people are quick to make fun of a civic with a big spoiler...............yet they have a fwd cobalt....................with a big ass spoiler





also the reason why I was never fond of the Srt-4s, I almost bought one, but my 1st mod was going to be: getting rid of the big ass wing, at least with Cobalt, I had a choice

look for RooTBeeR's profile, he has chrome door handles, the dealer put them on, i'm not really sure id he likes them or not, but i think they look good, just not my style.

he has the polished wheels as well, and they look great in combination on SRTC.
