My son asked why Ford didn't paint the rearview mirrors to match the car? It would look better if they matched the body color. Anybody doing this?
I saw on stangsunleashed that a company has full mirror covers, I went with the 1/2 covers so some of the black still shows. Next paint work is the rear bumper over winter.
Thank you for the correction. They are sideview mirrors. They do look cheap on my black gt500 as they are a dark grey.Just wondered if anyone else sees it that way. I see the red cobras are black. Go figure why Ford did this.I said rearview as thats what you see,the rear. You're right though.Hate to get technical guys, but aren't these sideview mirrors. I was always under the impression that the rear view was the mirror hung from the windshield inside the car.Check out my routine maintenance thread and see some real technical stuff.

That stuff is way above my head.

Painted mine and a few other parts. Mirrors require plenty of prep work.
Well,next to the painted car they don't match!I think Henry Ford said it best "you can have any color you want as long as it's black". 2005-2007 There is only 1 color of SIDEVIEW mirrors,black.All Mustangs have the same style(LH or RH) of SIDEVIEW mirrors. Does not matter if it is a V6,GT,CS or a Shelby they are all the same style and color.
