I'm about to buy a 2007 Accord VP today, which of course comes with black door handles, instead of ones that match the body. At some point I'd really like to change out the black handles for ones that match the body (desert mist metallic). Dealer told me it would be about 2 hours per door labor for them, which I'm sure would be $800 or so labor alone. Anyone know how? Or should I let it be?

It will be harder than the mirrors, but you have to remove two 10mm bolts, change over the lock cylinders and reconnect the rods. If you don't feel you can tackle it, leave them. No door handle will ever be worth $800 to me unless they're shaved.
