My body shop that I go to said they would paint the mirrors for me for $80. SO I'm going to get them painted when they come in!

they look dumb without a body kit.
also the mirros off a grand am SE are not a painted black mirror. its just the plastic coating on the mirror that makes it black and then it fades out after awhile. so there is another difference between the SE and GT mirrors

Ok well i personally dont like the GA mirrors on stock body aleros. I like the stock mirrors better, and i want to know where i should go to get them painted the same color as my car?? i have a maroon alero, look on my cardomain if ya want.
Should i go to the dealer?? i know they will charge a lot but i dont think i can trust anyone around herelol

Or if i wanna do it the cheap way should i just paint the mirrors with the blue caliper paint i havelol lol LMAO that would be funny to do as a joke. If i made a lot of money i would buy another set of stock mirrors and paint them blue and post pics up just for laughs and act serious (lol i know its stupid but i think it would be hilarious to see what peoples reactions arelol )

you can take them to any body shop, but from what i've heard, the paint doesn't stick to those black mirrors very well...you're better off to get the paintable mirrors off of a 2001 or older model and get them painted to match
