no pics, but painted ones will ALWAYS look better than carbon fiber ones.

I have always thought that this opinion might be for people who do not want to pay the money for Vision or Spoon CF mirrors. CF is always nice.

...but I think painted with the base black ALWAYS look good. and so does CF(non painted).

and oh yeah...here is a pic that i found in the white hatchback thread

and...

Colormatching the base w/ the color of the car/mirror looks cheesy. It's like paiting your door pillars, window molding, or front bumper oem grill.

im not the kind of person to be a cheapskate when it comes to his own vehicle, if you put me in a room and showed me 2 diff cars, one with painted, and one with CF&lt; im gonna say painted even if painted ones cost more or less. i mean get real, why would you want CF mirrors anyways? carbon fiber is a material designed to be lightweight, when your thinking of weight reduction, does mirrors come to mind? lol didnt think so

looks like stock lights that have been pulled apart and the inside painted black

edit: and to stay on topic, i think the mirrors look best paintmatched with the car, with the base left black
