it depends on how much black you got elsewhere on the car. Sometimes black door handles adds the correct amoutn of contrast you need.Other times, it dont. If you have light color cars, ex. Benoit's, he needsa bit more black on his car becuase his silver is just tooooo bright. Take my car, pictured below, The color is dark in inteslf to not need much contrast.

I think it looks good no matter what the colour. too much contrast will lead your eye to that door handle, and its not something you want the person to be focussed on.
chleans the look of the car up

i like the look of body color. when my cars painted its going to have painted handles. it really does clean up the look on a white or light colored car and doesn't make u focus on it. also with tinted windows i have a good amount of contrast on the sides with black

i used to think that as well however after i painted mine from black to pearl it just cleans up everything. to each his own of course and black looks good still, i just think body color makes it look a bit more smooth.
