Does anyone know if the Steeda mirrors on the 05 are painted or have a seperate color piece.

I've been to Steeda, the recessed part of the stock mirror is painted only. Some members on this forum have had this done on their own.

There's two schools on this. Some say to sand smooth then paint. The other says scuff and shoot. Either way, use a paint adhesive prior to painting and above all, do not apply anything to the mirrors, any silicon or Armorall type products, until you decide whether you want to them paint. Reduces any problems latter. I'm at that point now. Body color or black. Leaning towards black.I did this on my dodge truck. Pepole will look and not figure out what is different, but they will like it. Plus, makes waxing easier.

Good luck

Thanks so much for all the help.

I chose to have a shop remove my mirrors and paint them the same color as the car...

See!!!

YES...

Since a professional shop did the painting, they first primed them and then applied paint (off the car and then installed them back)...

They are good to go with no problems at all...

Wheels are 18" Chrome Bullits with Falken GR451 255/45/18ZR...

The tires stick like glue on the road...

Dear Redbullet,

I got my rims from www.CrossRoadzdirect.com, but I heard recently that the service level for filling orders has been very slow...

Try www.mustangtuning.com...
