2007 Black Trucks w/ Painted Mirror Caps & Door Handles

Do we have any black paint 2007 owners here yet? I really want to get a good look at how the black painted top caps on the mirrors and the painted handles look on your truck.

Post some pics if you have them! Thanks guys!

i don't know about black but my local dealer has a white 07 king ranch and the matching mirror caps and handles look amazing. they should have made them this way from day one.

I highly doubt that. More like looking to see how the painted mirror caps and handles will look on his current black KR. I can't see RP as the person who gets a new truck once a year.

RP..I've seen them in person and honestly, I didnt like the mirrors. The painted black cap kinda clashes with the flat black plastic on the bottom. As with every thing, some will like it and some wont. I don't like it..whew, just saved myself some money there

The painted handles look good. I would consider them if I didn't have the LT handles already..once again..Whew,saved me some money there

I'll see if I can snag some pics if its still at the dealership.

I like the front grille, are they available yet? Not a fan of the mirrors, plus they will be pitted from highway rocks in no time. Door handles are nice as well.

I would like the mirrors better if the whole thing were painted.

Saw a 07 Black KR at the dealership the other day, the handles are a definite improvement, but I think the mirrors just don't look right with the gloss black paint and flat black bottom, on other colors there is more contrast and it looks sharp, but just don't know about the black, they look almost unfinished to me....

here's another thought...has anyone ever seen an FX4 grill painted to match? i think it looks a little tougher than the full billet but i thought it might look sweet on a black truck painted to match with the billet inserts. i like the mirrors and door handles too.

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

i do not like the painted caps i think it looks funny with just the top painted, the entire thing painted is what would look sweet.

That has to be the sharpest looking version of the F150 from Ford to date!
