Ok so my mirrors are getting really faded/crackly. I was thinking of painting them black this weekend, but what other options would look good but still be different at the same time? Is there somewhere I could maybe find like a cheap CF wrap for them? Or maybe some super super cheap different mirrors? I'm open to all suggestions, and whatever I do to the mirrors I may paint the spoiler to match (it desperately needs paint also, along with the roof.)

One thing I was thinking of was black. My friend's Dodge Stealth has a black roof on a white car and it looks kinda neat, maybe something like that? Idk, I'm just bored and tired of looking at my crappy stock paint lol

My mirrors are slightly faded, too so I know how you feel...BUT I don't think that you should paint them black. IMO, anything but your current car color would look bad. Same with your spoiler, unless you get a TRD one with a CF center.

lol today I was washing the car in the garage before someone comes to test drive it Monday and didn't realize how much more the paint on the spoiler and mirrors has faded (it's been under snow and stuff for a while).

Eh oh well. If it doesn't sell this week maybe I'll respray them
