audi door handles are a nice touch (look in any edition of PVW and your bound to see a car in there with them).
theres quite a lot of work involved in them though, they have to be welded into the door after the old one is removed and then they have to be painted along with the whole door and other parts of the cars side to compensate for any possible colour differences.

I prefer the standard handles to be honest.

One of the things I like about the Polo, specially after having "van handles" on previous cars.
