Also, I forget to mention the best part:
Dealer quote to swap out chrome handles and mirrors, "It's a four hour job":$875.00
Final price after trading parts with another forum member and doing the work myself in approx 45 minutes : $30.00 in overnight shipping costs.

Re: Black mirrors and handles installed!!
Yeah all went well. I know nothing about vehicles and it took me maybe 30 min to take off & 30 min to put on.
Heres pics.. Yeah my hood handles are weird -- my wife bought them and they sent the wrong ones. But we were too lazy and didn't return them in time. Threw wifeys CTS-V in there too. Sunny Florida.

Think on the bright side.... When you get older you can swap out those hood handles and put them in your bathroom as assist grips

You swapped FOUR door handles and TWO side mirrors in 45 minutes? That's about 7 minutes per part.

Re: Black mirrors and handles installed!!
Congrats on your math skills. Yes, 45 min, MAX. And that was 5 door handles.The process is very simple. One bolt per door handle. The mirrors (you only have to do the caps) are simple also but take a little more time than the handles. There is a tutorial on how to do it.
