Default Mirror caps

Is it possible to paint the side view mirror caps that are black plastic to make it match the paint on the truck well? Or do you need to buy paintable caps?

It would be easier to buy paintable caps. They are only $24 each at tascaparts.com
There's a guy on Ebay that sells them painted for $250.

I have white caps. Remember, they take a lot of abuse, bugs mostly.

Me also. I went to Tasca to look them up. Confusing as to which are the correct ones. I have the standard black plastic mirror covers on my 2018 XLT Sport.
LMK if you figure it out.
