Question…

For fuel doors and door handle inserts that screw into the actual plastic of the Jeep… is this a good idea? I ordered some but I’m not sure how to feel about screwing holes into the plastic 😂

It's not like they're load bearing or anything. Just be careful drilling the pilot holes. Personally, I took the plastic off and replaced them with metal.
 
Yep. Thanks to Dirty Dog, I'm about ready to pull the trigger on replacing all of my door handles and tailgate handle with a set of metal. Tired of trying to keep up with the fading plastic.
Throwing away plastic is nearly always the best choice. It'll cost more initially, but you stop spending time and money on trying to keep the cheap plastic from looking like cheap plastic.
