Anyone have pics of painted mirror bases?

I am thinking when I have my bumperettes and lower section in the rear painted that I should have this piece in the picture painted:

Has anyone done this?? Any pics??
I just don't see a reason to have it black, since there will be nothing on my car that is black anymore, and I think it will give the car a "cleaner" look...
Regards,
Evan

Man, I don't want no Mercedes mirrors, I am AMG EATER not AMG LOOK ALIKE . Nah I am just thinking of painting the bases since everything else will be yellow (factory areo and bumperettes and rear under section).

Evan

I thought about doing this a while back (when I did my bumperettes, etc...) but most advised against it as that surface is hard to paint, will chip and painting it takes away from the unique shape of the window...
