I'd like to get LT handles for my truck.. The stock, plastic ones are starting to fade and not look so hot. Few questions.

Do they come painted when you buy them?

Do they get scratched in the "cup" over time from fingernails and rings?

ON a scale from 1-10... 10 being the hardest, how was the install. I also have a keypad on my handle. Is it hard to remove and remount the keypad?

Are the handles actually metal, or that chrome plated plastic?

Rouglhly, how much per handle, including the tailgate.

 

Well, I guess I over looked this thread when I searched the first time.

Great info here.

Thanks for any responses anybody wants to give though.
