Would chrome paint work?

Have to agree that chrome mirrors are pretty chavtastic.
You could maybe do them in the LE anthracite which looks good. However, as stated above you really should have other chrome accents on the car to pull something like this off....

If it ain't broke dont fix it....:) or like fran says maybe the anthracite would look good...i can almost guarantee you will regret fitting chrome mirrors unless you have a collection of burberry caps

Trouble is though black mirrors are associated with the base models of every make out there!!
And the chrome are associated with the Audi s and rs models!
Your a bit stuck with yer White coachwork I had some one suggest when I was thinking of doing the spoiler black 3m carbon wrap what about that??
Il search the link out or google it :-)
