Painting the Mirrors
Wanted to know what are the steps on how to take off the mirrors and paint the outside plastic parts. Seen them painted before and they look awesome if done right. Mine's an 03 so they look like this:
 I want to paint them white to match the car.

Re: Painting the Mirrors
Most people use body paint. But there is only three nuts holding the mirror in. and they are behind the plastic piece that is held on with one screw.

Re: Painting the Mirrors
You dont have to. If you know the basics on how to do a quality paint job just pick up some duplicolor and shoot it yourself
