Default Paintint mirrors

Has anyone painted their mirrors? I looked but can find anything. I was thinking of color matching them. I have some left over paint and was trying to think of a way to use it.

I have been thinking about having mine color matched as well but I do kind of like the black to break up the orange a little. Still undecided. Why don't you go ahead and do it so I can see what it would look like on a truck with color.

I've a done a few pieces on the truck. I usually paint metal at work but it is more industrial. Im sure i can do it. The hardest thing will be getting all the places that hinge so that there isn't any missed spots. I think?
