I hate the cheap looking black Express door handles.

So I just ordered some Delmonico red ones. I was surprised they weren't all that expensive. $88 plus inflated shipping for the pair. For some reason the drivers door is quite a bit cheaper than the passenger side.

I'll post pics once I get them, and get them installed.

Passenger side is the one that most often gets broken. Hope your new ones have the turn signals in them.

Not many door handles have turn signals in them...
I was wondering about that myself. Now when I first posted this, in the title I said mirrors when I meant door handles, but I fixed that well before anyone posted. Maybe he is still seeing the original title for some reason.

My '76 K-5 Blazer was black. Showed dirt like crazy.

My '84 Ram was black. Showed dirt like crazy.

My '16 Fiat 500 Abarth was black. Showed dirt like crazy.

My '02 Fatboy is black. Shows dirt like crazy AND it's loaded with chrome.

I've learned. A bit slow but, I've learned.
Here's proof that "once you go black, you never go back" is BS.

Nice looking truck, love the long bed! And yeah it took me my 02 wrangler (although that one was so covered in mud you couldn't tell what color it was) and my 11 ram. After going black with those two, I went red with my last two (flame red and Delmonico pearl) and love how they hide dirt/hard water whereas my black ram showed everything.

Seems we like the same stuff.

I put the same Go Industries Rancher grille guard on my White 2500 as I had on the '09. I got 2 deer in the '09 and I've got 4 already with Big White. Very hard to spot the damage on either one. Those bars ain't cheap but, they saved me a LOT of bodywork repairs. Paid for themselves several times over.

Wow that's a lot of deer! I've had some close calls in my nearly 18 years of driving but still haven't gotten one, fortunately. They are around here like crazy too. That's cool that the grille guard does such a good job protecting it, I'm impressed. Here's my last 2 red rams, I wouldn't mind making it three straight but also wouldn't mind the patriot blue or some sort of two tone next.

where'd you order them from?

I have the same dislike for any non-body color handles. ie. the chrome ones on my longhorn drive my ocd squirrely (along with the chrome mirrors).... and bumpers lol. meh, maybe it's not so much ocd as preferring the look of a sport where everything matches
