Default Side Mirrors

Has anyone switched out the covers for the side mirrors? Thinking of going from the silver to black, or thinking of just getting them vinal wrapped? comments welcome!

Due to all the tight curves, a few people have painted them black. Here's the thread discussing that:

i dont know where you'd be able to get black ones.. ask the dealership? they arent really hard to pop off.. you just pop the mirror up.. and pull down to get it off.. then there are tabs holding the cover in place.. you can just sand that down and paint it.. or wrap them like taht.. took me like 5 minutes to take off and put on my new covers..
