Thanks for the compliments everyone. I took the mirrors off and had them painted. The mirrors are just raw plastic, so first they were painted black, then the silver was added, and then they were clear coated.

Yeah, the plastic is black, thats why they are shiny, but there is no paint on them from the factory.

My monotone Vibe has solid black platic mirrors... I wonder how I could paint them up some to look good. As stated before, yours are awsome.

Those look really good! Especially on Satellite. I don't think you could see it as much on my Neptune. Good job!

Hopefully you won't take offence if I want to copy you with doing that! :DLooks freakin' sleek, I love it. Great job :DIt doesn't look like CF mirror covers will ever come out for the Vibe/Matrix ... so this might be my only option.

I'm painting mine to match also, but solid silver the same color as the car. I'm thinking about painting the black trim that outlines the tail lights also, instead of waiting for euros.
