Default Color match tow mirrors?

What would y'all think of color matching tow mirrors since my stock mirrors are color matched? I'm thinking of getting towing mirrors for my birthday

Colored match, will look badass. Kinda like the XLT and Lariat mirrors.

My truck is a lariat, and it's grey so I think it would look badass, I already have to get a new tailgate painted so I'm thinking of getting some tow mirrors paint matched while I already have the paint

Looks tacky to be honest. Its also a lot of work to get the mirrors smooth so it would look even remotely good. I've thought about it but I would only go as far an replicating the mirror cap itself.

I have the colored mirrors on my truck and I am not a fan of them. I have thought many times about just putting bed liner on them. I don't like them but mine don't look good, around the edges the pant is gone so I have a weird whiteish gray outline lol.

Why don't yall like the color matched mirrors? I think that's a great image to 10th gens. No other manufacture does that anymore.

I would love to have some color matched tow mirrors, IMO they look unique especially on these trucks because you never see them!

Black mirrors look like **** unless they're tow mirrors. The duramax style mirrors can't pull off being painted,really only 05-07 and 08+ f250 mirrors pull it off and only in certain colors like white.
