Default Leather Door Pulls

My '08 driver's door pull is getting scarred and i'm considering replacing it with a leather one. Am I correct in thinking the 4LT optioned cars had leather door pulls? I believe they all have the visible stitching but is an Ebony color pull available with black stitching? (That way it wouldn't look out of place in my 3LT interior.) Can someone post a picture of an Ebony (black) leather door pull for me?

Thanks.

Black leather door pulls come in blue, titanium, yellow or red stitching. Get ready to spend $600+ for the oem 4LT door pulls pair in leather.

Part numbers for ebony with titanium stitching are 15895463 and 15895477

Wow! Part numbers too. Thanks Manny.

GM Parts House quoted me a price about half your amount which is still rather steep. What I don't know at this point is what the titanium stitching looks like against the ebony pulls and how different they would look with the rest of the interior. Does anyone have a picture or two?

Let me point out that I was considering the same thing as you, replacing just my ratty door pulls. I actually ordered new ones (custom made) and then found a set of used DSV panels on this forum. So for not much more money, I have something a lot better.

Search the BST forum and see what might be there. As a second option, I was considering send cores to Double-D mod who will leather cover them for about $1300 a pair. Their work is very good from what I heard, but DSV is supposed to be the best. GM ones are a a very distance third because of the materials they use. You might be able to pick up a pair of panels to use as cores for $200-300 if you cannot have your car down while they recover them.

Just food for thought.

The price for door panels kind of scared me off but you're right, it is an option.
