Side View mirror knocked off!!

I did the search already, but no one really said how much would it be to paint a sideview mirror. So far the cheapest I've found were on EBay, but all of them come black. Mine is for a silver 2000 SLE. Has anyone gone through this before, any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Not sure if the silver has any pearl in it (i dont think), but side mirrors to be painted shouldnt cost all too much... expect to spend $50-100

it may cost that much just due to materials and suppplies preparation for such a small area to cover

yeah i had that happen to me, and coincidentally my car is sliver too a 99 SLE...

havent painted it yet, bought some silver spray paint that matched the car's color,and some clearcoat... but its too damn cold out here in NYC for me to do that.

You could get it done for about $40-80 depending on where you take it.

Im spraying it, cuz i wanna do a repaint of the whole car within the year.
Geeks get it done, while Nerds whimper and call for mommie.

Thanks guys, do you keep it black? or did you actually spray paint it yourself?

shouldnt cost too much. if you kept them black it might look hot with your color, but a safe bet would be to paint it. good luck.

yeah if they were both black, lol not mismatch. For now until I get my money up and the weather gets nicer, I just did some duct tape magic lol. Now its functional (dunno if I decide to get a carwash what would happen).
