Duplicolor at almost any autostore, prime paint clearcoat bake in the sun. You got your mirror covers lass than they cost at the dealer!

It's a pain bc you have to sand off the texture. I had mine done at a professional body shop and they still don't look quite like stock ones do. (This bodyshop has the reputation for being one of the best in the city) If they make them for your color at the dealer, I'd just get them there.

Mine were the chrome ones, I just scuffed them up enough to make the paint stick.

Got mine from JP Customs, it's a little pricey though. But they're perfectly smooth and the paint matches 100%
