looks great.

I'm thinking about going all non-chromatic in MSM, with everything MSM as much as possible. Looks like I'll have to do the door handles.

Did you self install? How hard?

Very easy. Just a couple screws on the inside of the door jam.
When I did mine I cleaned it off really well then put a coat of polish then waxed it Didn't really need to but I guess the OCD kicked in.
