Painting Gen-3 Dakota Door and Tailgate handles

Question about painting handles..... I've been told that it won't hold up
very well. My favorite paint guy showed me by pulling on the door handle and
it flexed enough for the handle pull to hit the bezel. He seams to think that
it will mess the paint up in no time. I know it has been done as I've seen
pic in magazines but does it hold up? Any first hand painted handle
experience on the list?
