Agent 47 Retro Mirror Paint in Performance White

I just bought Agent 47 Retro mirrors from SilverHorseRacing (thanks Marcello). Now I have to send them out for paint. What I want to know is how should I have them painted. Mind you my car is Performance White.

This is what I think:



but I'm open to ALL Black or ALL White.

What does everyone think?

that is perfect, i was planning on doing that once i got my mirrors, even though my car is black i would still like that gloss finish. But i say go with that idea, it would make the mirrors "pop" instead of blending in with the rest of the car.

^Isn't that how they look on the SHR showcar?

Edit: Nope I was wrong.

If you notice, the mirror seems out of place or just blends in with the rest of the car, if they had done the two-tone i think it would have look alot better.

I think superflyS197 has it in white with the black. I've never seen all textured black like the stockers though...that I can recall. Might look really good.

Shaun!!! Nice to see you're still alive and kicking. Thought you were moving?

Regardless, my two cents... I love the TT on Darkfire's Torch Red. The additional thread someone added for comparision really helps too. I was going to say all white. You don't want to call TOO much attention (they're just mirrors afterall). However, after seeing the photoshops, I vote two-tone. Hope you enjoy. I am somewhat impartial - I am waiting to received mine (being painted by SHR) - I have Redfire and after much research, decided all red looked best - but it really does depend from one color to the next!

Here's a thought, what about painting to match your racing stripes?!?

why didn't you buy them pre-painted from Marcello?

now you have the hassle of running around finding a good paint shop for it.

But the mirrors rock. I have them too.
