I got a set in matte black. I'm sure RPMtesla.com would be willing to make whatever color you want.

Those don't manage the heat on the inside of the handle - which is the hot part! You've got to get the full wraps. Also, if you pre-cool the car, it will also cool off the handles a little,

@ WMAC - they do wrap all the way behind the handle. It's hard to see in the picture (the last pic was an attempt), but it wraps the entire front of the handle, as well as the back of the handle where you pull it. I've been burn myself a few times in the past

Both the clear and the colored wrap the back side as well.

I don't mean to make light of the OP's situation but I was reminded of that post when I read today's Garfield cartoon:

Why are the handles hotter than an ICE car's handles?

So glad that this came up - the handles really do get way too hot. - even in Switzerland It's strange that this never came up during prototype testing in the hot California sun.

Maybe it did but just wasn't a priority to fix. My handles get super hot too. Feels like I need some oven mits.
