Polishing Door Handles

Hey everyone I have a real dumb question; I didnt't get the chrome package for this car and the more I see it the more I want it. Does anybody know if theres a way to polish the door handles and sideview mirrors????

You could buy chrome ones, and have them installed, any dealer could do that...

You can polish them but certainly not to achieve bright chrome. Mine are satin and I polish them all the time. Keeps them smooth and shiny.

Are yours the original stock ones? What do you use to polish them and make them shiny

Yes. But don't expect shiny in the same way as the car paint. But I use the same polish I do on the rest of the car...Meguire's.

I have done the same to mine. Satin wont shine like everything else but it does make them look nice

You can try "Eagle One Never Dull" its seems to bring the finish out in almost anything.
