Default ?Paint mirrors or leave black?

I just got some spoon replica mirrors for my civic and I was thinking about painting the outer part the same color as my car, just like the ones on the Integra in the lower pic. I will be getting my front bumper painted so getting the mirrors painted should be cheap if not free. What do you think I should do?

here is a pic of my car (sorry its a bad pic)



this car is an example of how the mirrors would be painted (not my car)
