I think if you were compelled to paint them at all that you'd need to go with a black that is similar to the molding.
But yeah, I wouldn't. There are plenty of other mods that you could do that you be a better choice.

I don't know, I think it would look alright. Just as long as it matched your rims.
Edit: Here's a quick photochop...although they wouldn't be as white colored, that's just the glare from the other picture.
I have these, I think they look great on my car.

way to come through with the photochop munky. I think they look okay with the rims. i think the suble hints of chrome in the hyundai symbol also complement the look. Kind of a 50/50 with this mod

if it were only the handles it wouldn't look bad, many acuras have it standard

That's the way mine are..just the handles.
i think they would work casue of your wheels. i been thinkin about this myself (see my garage in sig for pics) cause my wheels have a shiny lip im thinkin it might accent it a bit more.. i just duno cause im not a huge chrome fan, but still it might look good. im sittin on the fence same as you. my car is similar colored too heh
do they make a paint color similar to the aluminum shade of a buncha wheels these days? maybe if we got our hands on that and just painted the handle only that might work out well.. duno if it even exists though

It's all preference. I personally like everything color matched but if your down w/ another color handle go for it. Don't think it's tacky, just not for me.
