My mirrors Look like crap

I want to paint them the same color of the car. Where can I find out what materials i will need to paint them. Paint type, color ETC. Or should i leave them black..... Thanks people.

Leave them black, they fit the windowframe and tint color nicely. If you paint them silver, they're gonna stick out like skidmarks on white undies.

Most new cars now are color keyed...Your door handles and door trim are already silver, I think they wouldn't stick out any more then the black ones look now look and all/most cars have black trim around the windows, I say go for it!...JMO...Radd

Yeah but unless you got them professionally painted it would be noticeable that they weren't.
