    I think the plastic ones look shit house man, i reckon the chrome would flake off real quick. I just got a set of genuine ones (secondhand) for $150 from ebay, if you want new from holmart $250 unpainted. i did see a set the other day for $100. either way its worth spending a little more for a better job that will last at longer in the end.

    The genuine chrome handles are made of metal and are much less likely to break than the plastic. Plus they look a lot better.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.
