2003 Silverado dually crew cab pick-up.
Does Chevrolet make this tailgate handle in white with chrome? Maybe from a Escalade or some other GM truck?, that will fit the 03 dually?
Have installed the four white with chrome door handles. Very pleased with the results.
Thank you to all who have responded in the past and thank you for any response to this question.
Sincerely.

Yes and this is the only one doing it. He is taking the stock handles and smoothing them and having them plated. Haven't seen the quality first hand but have heard nothing but good things about them. He advertises on other sites too.

I have one good stuff .... I haven't painted my bucket yet,I purchased prior to him offering a painted bucket ...
Keep in mind painted buckets can be had depending on your exterior thru GM ...
The SS shares the same bucket and I believe the 1500 Series also for some door aplications....

His handles were originally $60 for the first batch about a year ago but I have seen them usually around the $90 mark for just the handle and $120 with the bezel. Gonna run ya about $30 for the painted bezel alone to get one shipped to ya.
Here are some PN for the painted tailgate handles and bezels. Keep in mind that from GM they come painted over the textured finish like the SS handles. Not smooth like the door handles.

I sent him an email and this was his reply:
Handles with bezels are $125 +$12 shipping.
White bezels are 3-4 weeks out – as I have none in stock right now – and I don’t paint stuff until I have cash in hand (or Paypal)
Thanks,
Ben
I might see what it will cost me to get my handle chromed locally. I am not concerned about his price, I just don't like sending him money and then waiting 3-4 weeks for the product. That's a poor way to do business if you ask me. If he would have had them ready to go I would have sent him the money right away.

i was going to get mine chromed but decided not to ,but it shouldn't be more than $25-$30 to chrome the handle and as far as the bezel you can either smooth it out yourself or smooth it out and take it to a body shop to get painted
