side mirrors

[AleroGX04]

hey, need some help. My alero is white and the side mirrors are black and i think it'll look better with them white as well. Just wonderin how much work this involves and if a how-to would be possible. thanks

lightly sanded the area so the paint will stick - CHECK
taped off area around mirror to prevent overspray - CHECK
gotta can of white spray paint - CHECK

anything else i am forgetting?

hey, thanks for the help..sorry if it was a dumb question or whatever...not exactly the best with cars here. thanks again. gonna tackle it tomorrow so i'll post pics of it finished.

the more expensive route is takin your car to a body shop. they could probably match the white fairly easily.

shouldn't he spray some clear coat over it after he paints it white? Just thought I'd ask for him. :p

i put 02 grand am side mirriors (the two post ones) on my alero. they look way better than the ugly stock alero mirrors, and they are a direct bolt on.
