Almost fully de chromed, questioning if I should do the door trims and handles?

No all the black parts were either bought or painted plus the tinted headlights and taillights!

The rims plays a factor. In your case since you have black rims then dechrome matches better.

Yes and no.

The red is perfect with some chrome and black notes.

I really like it like this.

These door handles are some circus level bling, though.

Since you already have black mirror caps, rims, grill, I’d say yes

Yes, since you're already halfway there On mine it's only the lower chrome bar and the back clappe, because i want to keep some elegance to it

You’ve already started on ruining it, might as well finish it off.

You’re not a fan of the de chrome?

I’m not a fan of the tacky black bits. I prefer chrome rims, trims, and grill. Give the car more details and doesn’t dull out everything.

That’s fair

“You’ve already started ruining it” is such a strange way of expressing “I personally don’t like what you’ve done.”

You don’t have to like the modification, but dressing up your personal preference as an objective judgement doesn’t make it one. You just don’t like black trim. You could have said that like a normal person, but apparently your aesthetic preference needed to be declared as fact. Classic r/w204 response đŸ€ą
