Do the PTM FX2 handles have chrome center handles if so send them over my way (right color match )

Kind of pricey for a set of handles not to come pre-painted -- versus that of the LT handle which is pre-painted. I just wish you could get them **without** the chrome handle.

So if i was lookin for the LT handles, they are already painted some LT color and dont come unpainted or primed?? I have bright red and already know ill have to get them painted, i just like the chrome handle instead of the painted handle like the FX2. But i guess if it came down to it I could do the FX2 handles and the chrome putco overlay deals for the handle pull portion. .
EDITED cause after i read it it again, it sounded all wrong. . sorry guys. I shouldnt type late at night

Hmm... A little confused by your post...
The LT handles come pre-painted (the paint codes cross over to several F-150 colors) and feature the chrome handle already in place.
The Paint to Match handles are unpainted and have no chrome. This is also known as the FX2 handle.
Doesn't the LT come in bright red? If so, the combo exists out of the package rather than having them painted.
