Yes,they are metal...the handle and the base that bolts (or rivets) to the door with a plastic shield that goes between the handle and the car.Mine came with rivets,but I use bolts.Took about 30 minutes to swap them both (the old ones were bolt on replacements from years ago).Made a huge difference.
