Thanks Kabel. Any chance I could bug you to do the piece that attaches the mirror housing to the door too? I think it would look ok.

Doesn't look as bad as I thought it would. I think the trim pieces would need to be painted as well.
Or could you just buy those trim pieces in gray in the event you ever decided to change the color back?

Here it is in a flat black (with a glossy inset):

Thanks guys, I might try to find the parts off a wrecked black one or something, I got the idea from the GT3 RS. Just thought it might be something a little different.

Hey wait, you're right. They are black. I guess they just looked gray in the low quality images above.
