Thanks. The external mirror housing were painted black. The internal part of the housing is stock Artic Silver. The red pinstripes were hand painted where the black and silver meet.

JIC's have been great...really could not have asked for anything better...in fact they make the need to upgrade the sway bars pretty obvious....need to get back to you on that when the mod budget gets replenished
btw, your ride looks fantastic!
