Painted tow mirror caps
Does anyone know if you can buy these directly from the factory or do you have to ptm the ones I already have on my truck? My concern with that is the all black ones have a slight texture to them. Please post pics if you've done this.

I agree there. That price is so over inflated for a 35 cent piece of plastic and 1.50 worth of paint.. Tape em off and use a rattle can to color match them yourself. You can get a factory match from forhttp://www.automotivetouchup.com/ for a few bucks.

I use a lot of AutomotiveTouchUp Paint and it's really nice to work with...and very accurate.
On another note, are the mirror caps easy to take off?

I painted mine with DC universal black..Worked OK but not entirely happy with the turnout. I'll probably drop them off at a paint shop sometime and have them done in deep gloss black properly.

Not wanting to fiddle with the glass, I actually just put the finest screwdriver I had under the cover and popped it off. I broke 1 side of the 4 clips on each. I sanded em, painted em, expoxied the broken side of the clip back in place and snapped it back in. it holds as good as new and it was less risky in my opinion.
