Alpine White Mirror Caps?

So I am getting the front of my car resprayed to remove stone chips then getting it wrapped. (Should have done that when it was new, but hadn't made up my mind on if I was keeping it).

I wanted to swap out the mirror caps to Alpine White one like the car, anyone have a good recommendation or should I just get the ferric grey ones stripped and painted Alpine?

I guess that would depend on cost. I would prefer to get ones that were already the right color. I got mine from someone selling caps off their f30.

but since you are already getting the front shot, I'd give it a go getting them shot too.

makes a huge difference though, totally recommend!

IND is your best bet - not cheap but excellent quality. Or go stormtrooper black is easy to source.

In your situation though perhaps easier / cheaper for shop to mix up a little extra paint and hit your mirrors while they're doing the rest.
