    I'd do it in flat or satin black and also do the towbar. (maybe you have - picture does not show). However, it's 100% on what it was before you painted it so I reckon it's OK.

    To me the black handle looks like a moustache. No idea why. Body colour all the way. Black just doesn't look right. Definitely de-badge it but.

    white ,no badges and no strip along the bottom will give it a clean look.
