I'll give you my thoughts.

First off, good looking truck. I have an '04 Quad cab HEMI 4x4 Sport myself. I was hit by another truck, while it was in the shop I had my body man remove all my emblems from the sides (even the HEMI) like yours, with my black bumpers I liked it much better. Your handles would look OK if you still had some chrome accents from your emblems that would match your bumpers. Without the side chrome, it just stands out a little strong for me. I would go back to the stock handles either way I guess. Some like the look and some do not, it is totally your decision what you like.
My opinion is leave it stock with all your chrome and see how the handles look. No chrome on the side, go with black handles.

After looking at you truck again, I got another opinion. You got nice wheels, you probably do not want the emblems back on, leave the chrome handles and do the a chrome accent on the rocker panels. That would blend in your chrome and make your truck stand out from the croud.

I think it helps tie in the whole chrome and black theme pretty good.

I really like the wheels and I might be getting a set myself this week!
