Should I paint my mirrors white?
Last summer I painted my wheels white and added the white Porsche stripe which I love but now I want more! I'm sending the car into the shop next week to have the wheels professionally repainted(mine didn't hold up great). I'm thinking about having the mirrors painted white while its in there, what do you guys think...too much? As it sits right now most people think it came from Porsche with the white ascents, I don't want to push it over the edge though.

I say no! You have just the right amount of white on the car to not make it look like an afterthought.
Just my 2 cents. |
stripes and wheels looks good
i think white mirror caps will make it more flashy but a little over done, especially looking at the front it won't add up...all you see is the white mirror caps and not the wheels and the stripes from the side and you'll be left scratching your head... |
Concur; Love the wheels & stripe, think white mirrors might be too much.

(don't remember where this pic is from but i think it was from this forum.) I would recommend doing the bottom part of the mirror. You know that black rubber like underpart that is the extension of the mounting. This is to try and emulate the red strip seen on this boxster mirror. I don't know how it will look on the standard mirror but I defiantly am going to try and vinyl wrap that part if possible. |
One more No
Your car looks great as is. Skip the white mirrors.
|
I agree with others, what you have done looks great. Get the wheels done professionally like you said and enjoy it. Just enough WHITE IMHO.
|
I wouldn't gild the lily .
|
Not the mirrors, but personally I think a white rollbar would be outstanding.
|
Mirrors= no in my book. Your car has a great style to and looks great. Can some one photochop some white mirrors on?
|
you could stripe the mirror.
|
Hope that closes this thread and help you to remove that idea!

The side vents would look better than the mirrors :)
|
NO you will mess up the straight line you have going on with white. Car looks nice like it is. Only Danger's birds have white mirrors....
|
I agree with the others - don't paint the mirrors. I love the look as it is. It reminds me of the 911 my dad used to own:

I would give the mirrors a miss but would look at taking the amber indicators out
