    IMO, best place would be your local dealership, if you can get them to pricematch online prices, since you save on shipping. Otherwise, my vote would be sparksparts.com.

    Sparks also has a discount code. I used it recently. Look for it in here.

    BAM Wholesale Parts. Must be a bad name here as it wont let me post a link.

    I usually try and google search a part number to find the best dealer price online that also has lower shipping costs.

    To much to list:)
    Sparks and Cool Springs has always been my and many others go to place to order OEM parts. Heck fire my two dealerships can’t even find half the things I wanted on their computer and when you tell them how much you can purchase them for and have parts shipped right to door they can’t believe it and say they can not match the price. My local guys can’t even find the parts I am looking for half the time and tell me those are not available or Toyota does not make them??!!!!:)

    I called one of the main numbers of the corporate offices in North Houston and a fella that was in charge of parts distribution or something like that said it is not knowing how to use the computers correctly. I asked him if he thought it might be a good idea if someone could show them and he told me they would work on it. To this day nothing has been done. Oh ya another excuse I was told here locally that they can not get the parts in this region that others can???? I don’t even know what that BS is all about!!! I am serious they could not order me Black OEM rims I called Cool Springs and in less that five minutes they had a part number,, I ordered four and had them shipped for the price of one from a local dealer!!!! It’s just crazy how this works!!!! It is pretty comical to tell the truth!!!!:) and sad!!!:(

    I've found my local dealer will price match other dealers which avoids shipping costs.

    Just had to give a BIG THANKS for everyone's input above! I'm new to Tundras.com and was looking to black-out my 2016 with matte black door handles and this thread was a huge help. I ended up buying from McGeorgeToyota, for at the moment of purchase they had comparable pricing, no tax and free shipping over $75. I also received great customer service due to a number of phone calls due to issues with my VIN#, etc. If it's beneficial at all... here's some things I learned (forgive me if I'm stating things already known):

    1) The websites mentioned below ask for your VIN# to verify that the aftermarket purchases will fit your vehicle. What I found out was that often you will get a flag when buying a part that didn't "officially" come with your vehicle. That doesn't mean the part won't fit, it just means that it wasn't an option for your specific model. Case in point... I received an error when trying to purchase the black door handles on my 2016 Tundra Limited simply because my VIN# shows they come with chrome only. But I'm told the black handles will fit (I'll give parts numbers below if it helps anyone out).

    2) I wanted "finished" OEM door handles and not ones that needed to be painted (or were "caps" that went over the current handles). I was able to ascertain that the matte black are actual painted handles. They are not just "primed" and they are made to handle the weather/elements. They are the handles that were stock on certain Tundras (TRDs?) with the black-out option.

    Where to purchase...

    * McGeorgeToyota has 2 websites. One https://toyotaparts.mcgeorgetoyota.com/ is cheaper pricing than the other, but they didn't ship to WA state, so was given an alternate site to purchase from https://toyotaonlineparts.mcgeorgetoyota.com. As I stated above, they had comparable pricing, no tax and free shipping over $75 (up to a $200 value) with code FREESHIP. The customer service was outstanding. I was actually able to speak to a person, Jason who answered all my questions and then some.
    * SparksParts https://www.sparksparts.com was going to be my front runner for purchasing, but they ended up being a tiny bit more expensive than McG's. I couldn't get through via phone so had to communicate via text. They had a discount code (Tundras.com - 5%), but not free shipping (so I thought). They are probably swamped with business, but were a little slow (by a day) on answering a question on pricing and hence I went with another store. I came to find out though that they too have 2 websites and on one apparently they offer free shipping (code?) https://parts.sparkstoyota.com; also for me there was no tax. They did have great customer service, but being able to speak with a rep is always better.
    * EBToyota https://toyotaparts.bochtoyotasouth.com originally had the best part pricing, but due to the problem with the VIN# match (as I mentioned above), the guy indicated they wouldn't guarantee a fit (apparently unlike Jason at McG's) he didn't understand the VIN# issue. Their discount was $5 off shipping of on order $250 or more. Hence, the first two stores mentioned wound up cheaper in the long run.
    * Toyota of Cool Springs... probably operator error, but this only came up as a dealership and although I didn't spend a lot of time, I couldn't find the aftermarket parts I wanted so gave up in favor of McG's and Sparks.
    *Local dealer matching? When I originally called my dealer and inquired about cost... she said the handles were $90 each!!! I was going to call back once I got my pricing from the online stores to see if they'd match, but since I saved on the shipping (AND tax)... it was way more cost effective to buy them online.

    Please forgive me (and let me know) if I'm getting in the weeds and posting way too much. I'm one of those detail guys and just wanted to pass along what I discovered in case it helps someone else out. I'll post some pics when I get the handles installed.
