Question Black door handle covers

I have an XLT so i have the textured black door handles.
I would like the glossy black door handles that come on the black FX2 trucks.
Anyone know how I could get mine to look like that?
thanks!

You can purchase those handles and relace the ones on your truck. That is what several have done. First started with the LT handles.

The LT handle is chrome. Look for the Fx2 handle.

Do you think getting the chrome door handles off ebay and just painting them would be the cheapest?
