Tell Mr.T he can't drive your car anymore with his rings on, that's like a wolverine was trying to get out! The door handle trim you might be able to save with some sanding/painting, but plastic dip would add too much thickness to it IMO.

The first peice is a dash blank. I don't know what else to call it.

The second peice is part of the door handle assembly. Onces you pull the door card off, that whole piece can be removed as one, then the switches can be removed from it, but the handle won't.

These chrome pieces might do the trick:


The place I bought mine no longer seems to carry them, but this looks similar:
