Black 3V, did you sand them and have them painted (handles and mirrors) or have someone do it for you?

RP, as I told you before, I think the painted black handles and top part of the mirror painted would look perfect on your truck.
Just like the old body style mirrors, the new body style should have come factory with the top half painted on up-scale models. (I guess they do now though) Hurry up and get them on.

BTW, thank you Black3v for the pics. I sincerely appreciate it!!!
REPP'D.

I would've like to seen the '07 mirrors full body color and the "B" pillars back to a gloss black. Not fond of a gloss black body, bumpers, grill, and then flat black handles, mirrors, and other accents. Just doesnt look finished to me. I will be looking forward to seeing the styling available in '08, should be ready to upgrade this '04 by then.

I just remember the Moss Motor option on page 20 of their catalog from the other day. Supercrews 42.95 and Supercabs/Regular cabs 24.95. Not sure how these would hold up but I have the Putco ABS chrome covers and they still look new after nearly two years of use.
