Chrome Hatch Boot Lid Rear Handle: Advice Needed

Newbie question here..

I'm thinking about adding a Chrome Hatch Boot Lid Rear Handle.

There are two type options out there... A replacement handle for around $113 at http://new.minimania.com/web/Item/G2.../InvDetail.cfm

..and a Chrome Cover that just sticks on for about $50 at http://new.minimania.com/web/Item/nma1233/invDetail.cfm

I'll assume many here have gone one route or the other... Pros vs Cons of either? Does the stick on version look bulky once on?

This wouldn't be an issue if the economy was better.. I'd just replace it, but as we're watching all our doubloons.. I thought I'd ask.. Opinions welcome..

Another option is the NAM marketplace... there's one currently listed.
