Mine came off on the driver's side. It was a pretty easy repair. They just have one bolt holding them on (on the bottom of the handle) and then the top sort of wedges into the door panel. I made a cheap L shaped bracket to hold the bottom on a little better and then epoxied the top part on better (as well as the top to bottom seam for the entire door card that was coming apart... common issue) and all is well now.
One thing I learned is while closing the door, hold the handle towards the bottom... it's much more prone to break off if you grab it towards the top.

I noticed some pretty good cracking in the plastic behind the metal cover on my door the last time I had the panel off doing some work. I think the plastic is built into the door panel itself, so guessing it's not available separately, but I could be wrong.
