Re: painting mirrors

I don't know. Since the top is black (Z28), I always thought the black mirrors complete the look. Is your car a Z28?

Re: painting mirrors

I like them better black, it helps them blend in better. I don't like the mirrors to show up very much, but thats just my opinion. Look at some pictures and see which you like better.

Re: painting mirrors

I like them better black too. My mirrors on my '94 z28 are black, and I think they look better than the ones on my moms '95 z28 that are silver(color of the car). They match the roof, and dark windows if you have a dark tint. I say keep them black, or instead of painting them try finiding some off a wreck camaro of your color.

Re: painting mirrors

Paint away my car looked like a pumpkin minus the teeth drawn on the doors. I just had the roof painted SOM 6 months ago. I had the roof replaced for having bubbles in it. The car might look like a 6 cyl but at least now I actually like it. Always hated the fact that Zs had a black roof
