Chrome side mirrors

[Ktj2023]

Has anyone chromed out their side mirrors? I'm contemplating doing mine. 2011 4.6 -- they look really good on the new Impala's. Just a thought...

I dunno - I'm generally not a big fan of chrome. I got some chrome B pillar covers and decided they looked awful and removed them. This damaged the finish on the B pillars and I got some black pillar covers to replace them - they look pretty good: http://genesisowners.com/hyundai-genesis-forum/album.php?albumid=290

Yeah I'm not a fan at all of the chrome pillars. They make any car look horrendous. Lol glad you removed them.

I'm not big on chrome at all. I think it looks ok when used in small amounts by the manufacturer but its not something I would add more of that's for sure. Chrome mirror covers would be very tacky IMO.

I have been looking to accent my car out with carbon fiber and wish I could find rear view mirror housings in that.

Have someone wrap them in carbon di-noc vinyl. Pretty simple to do.

I got that set from Kapastore (Seoul) on eBay. I just looked and Kapastore is no longer there, but eBay has piano black pillar covers from several different vendors. Mine have a double white pinstripe border and the "Genesis" label in white at the bottom, which I like, but the ones currently on eBay seem not to have this.

Not a fan of chrome side mirrors because they look cheap. I would use CF vinyl wrap for a sportier look.
