I can't imagine spending $1500 to change out the stock door handles.
If you're really set on doing this, a top-shelf body shop should be able to do it for a lot less. You don't have keyless entry, so this should be relatively simple.

I do have keyless entry. the car's without keyless entry don't have the metal trim at all and are completely plastic.
The glossy black trim only comes with the complete unpainted door handle so that price is with the whole part as well. I’m hoping to just un clip the Black shiny part and swap it with the chrome one. It's all about access though. It’s a little hard to see everything with the chrome trim while it’s on the car. I think I can get to it if it’s just a clip and no screws.

Dealer was able to get the new trim on without taking apart the doors.Lastly will be the black Porsche lettering when parts come in. I’ll do the Porsche letters myself when that black plastic trim piece arrives. It comes black and have to stick the black glossy letters myself.

Never got the individual price probably $300. About $1500 for parts.There is also the door trim parts and labor. Which is another $600 for parts and 3 hours labor with a custom tool that my dealer made to avoid the extra labor of removing the door panels to get that done
