Do you mean the "cups" around the door handle, or the plastic piece that has the window switches and such? If its the cups I say paint them, if its the other piece paint it black. Only my cups are painted, I left the other piece alone since they are a high contact area and I was afraid that they'd look like crap before long.
Yea, I'm talking about where the door locks and window switches are. I painted one flat black and the other with clear coat. The clear coat looks way toooo shiny. So I painted it red but its the only thing red in the interior. So I just bought paint stripper and I'm starting from scratch again. Going back to the flat black.
