Black O'Crap handles anyone?

Just had the headliner and pillars done in suede. I will post pics when all the interior covers come in from the dealership in black.

My question is the dealership said they did not see the crap handles in black.

My guy dyed the handles but he said it will not hold up and scratch easily. the back are fine since there are not any seats there.

The front however is different since it will get grabbed.

Can anyone with the anthracite headliner tell me if their handles are black or the light silver?

I was wanting to have some handles made out of billet aluminum and then anodized but that process will take a while and I really want to complete the look.

Thanks for any help with this.

That is what I thought but when I went to the parts department that was the one thing not in their parts list to order in black.

I will go back and see if he can search further.

Post pictures when done! Someone on MINI2 did his headliner and other interior trim in alcantara and it looked great.
