Gloss Black mirrors

Benny 318d · 09-09-2013, 12:27 PM

Has anyone seen or painted their wing mirrors gloss black on a LCI E90? Wondering what it would look like as I'm thinking of doing mine.

I have just been looking at the very stuff on eBay, cheap and reversible too! Are yours the LCI type mirrors? Im just wondering if it would make them look bigger if you see what I mean

Did you have a go yourself?

I painted my pre-LCI wing mirrors black.

Or buy some black covers and swap them over as and when you want....

My brother painted his black on his 07 E92 that's what got me thinking, its just the LCI ones are a lot bigger! I think wrapping them might be the way to go at first and see what they look like.
