I'm sure a dealer could do this for you, although it would probably be cheaper to do it yourself. You can buy the caps online and there is a thread or two on here explaining how to do it. You can either pull the caps off from the outside or go through the process of taking out your whole mirror. Either way works.

What color are your painted ones? I'd be interested in trading my chrome ones for your painted ones if they are magnetic gray.

Do it yourself and save the $$$ you could have it done in 5 minutes. If you have textured plastic ones that you don't want and are basically worthless. Just run a sharp edge around the mirror cap and pry gently. You'll likely only break 1, if any clips on the back of the caps your discarding. They can still be used if you still want them around. I've helped do it a few times as well as doing it myself on my toe mirror caps (although different). To place new ones, just snap em on!
