Did you do your mirror caps in gloss to match your shadowline trim? Could look good.

I have gloss carbon fiber mirror caps on mine, to match my rear diffusor and trunk spoiler.

So I've never plasti dipped. But I'm thinking of doing gloss black rims. A whole new world has opened to me

Of course I can't find it now, but there's a company that makes ABS plastic inserts that fit there with adhesive. I wanted one, but the only thing they had in stock was "carbon look"
Nonetheless, I think it looks great. I've never used plastidip but wouldn't that location be prone to peeling?

I went the Plasti-dip route on my stock rims before I got my VMR's .......Never again. To much upkeep and if you ever take it off it's a pain in the ass to get it out of the small spots.
