Boot Handle - Stick-on, Spray or Wrap

I'd like to replace the stock black boot handle with something different, but am a bit unsure about the best way ahead.

I was initially going to add the factory chrome part, but the dealer tells me it is no longer available for camera-equipped cars. OutMotoring does have it, but I thought I'd look at other options as well.

One option is the adhesive-backed covers like this - http://www.outmotoring.com/boot-hand...m-f56-red.html. My only concern is how well these hold up over time, and if the can be removed at a later date without damaging the original part.

Another option is to have it wrapped, which would probably be a good way to go.

The final option would be to have it sprayed. The only proble here is that it's not easily reversible.

Appreciate your thoughts on these options. It's a new car, so it has to be right.

Vinyl, cheap easy quick and easily reversible or changed to a different color. Looks like an easy part to do. $10 or less for material with a lot left over for other projects.
