I think they look good with the housing colormatched, but the chrome left.

Or just get a cheap painted mirror cap like me....(one of the first mods I did cause it was cheap.)

http://www.streetinspiredkustoms.com/ You can buy the caps here. But I'd say just buy some smaller ones. I'm taking my dumbos off!

I went ahead and put a painted cap on unpainted stock mirrors. I like that look a lot. You requested pictures so here is what mine looks like:

But since you painted everything else, you might want to go with the whole mirror being painted...up to you...

Painted housing around the mirrors

Deton8ted, those look pretty tight. How did you get them painted like that? Did you take them to the dealer, or do it yourself? How much did it cost??

Thanks
