Painted Door Handles and Tailgate Handle?

I have a GMC Sierra 2500 SLE2 Graystone Metallic Clearcoat (U213M) 16/WA213M and I'm trying to get painted door handles and tailgate handle on it.

I contacted Jennings Parts off of Ebay and the price seemed reasonable. I'd get all 4 door handles and wells (bezels) painted, along with the handle for the tail gate...but they no longer have the well (bezel) so I'd have to buy a different color and have it painted. Apparently GM stopped carrying the well in that color.

I don't want chrome, just painted to match...what options are there to find these?

Unfortunately, that is what I have heard many folks having to do. Seems everyone I know had that gray/silver color (sorry don't remember if it is the same as yours of different) had to do the same thing, buy a different color and paint them,.

I see 6 dealers that still show to have the gate handle/bezel pkg. in graystone. I can give you the part # and names/phone#s for them if you want to try and track one down.

Thanks, I wound up buying them through a dealer I found via ebay. I had to buy a white well for the tail gate and have it painted to match. Looks great, it makes a big difference in the look of the truck IMO. When I get a chance I'll take some pics and post them.
