What color are yours? Mine are already black from the factory.

Funky color.

Note the ones you linked at top are gloss black, you have Diamond Black Crystal with metal flake like me.

You can get OEM handles, but it's expensive looks to be around $110 a handle and you can take your door off and swap them if you wanted.

Else you could try the stick ons.
I see them on ebay for slightly cheaper then realtruck. Do a test fit first for size and color for all 4 and then make sure you clean very well before you apply them. Properly applied they will last forever and not fall off.

do you think the gloss black cover next to the diamond black would be a big difference?

Comes down to how clean you keep your truck lol, anything dirty enough and would would not know.

Gloss black would mesh better then a mat black would

I installed a black cap to over my Rambox keyhole and took some pictures.
One was a textured mesh pattern and i sanded it down and painted it gloss black. It doesn't look terrible, maybe if it was smooth it would blend in more.
Top 2 are gloss black
Bottom is textured pattern.

For the $40-50 I would just say go for it. If you don't like it you still learned something.
