I have a base model black ls coupe and have seen the SS mirror covers for sale. Instead of spending thhe money on them, i already am painting my SS body kit so i'll have extra paint left over, how do you remove the mirror covers, think i would be able to paint them/ clearcoat them to match the car? anyone done this with success? thanks

the flat black plastic just doesnt look good.

 

i think they just kinda snap on and off.

 

k, thats what figured but i didnt want to try it and break it, i'll gove give it a shot since i ahve a loaner LS sedan while my cars in the shop, so if i break it i wont really care

 

Eh I'm sure whoever ownes the loaner will care if you break it..Let me get this right your trying to make your LS look like a SS?...

 

I have tried to find a pair of painted black covers for mine and have had absolutely no luck. I've not wanted to sand and paint these though for fear they'll get screwed up.

 

confirmed, they pop on and off, sounds like an easy mod for Ls owners at afaction of the price of buying painted mirror covers

not soo much to make it look like an ss but that is the route im going after searching for body kits, i think the stock SS kit looks the best compared to any other kit out there besides the grip tuning but thtstoo much money. so yea it's going to be an ss clone, everything from exterior to interior and hopefully down the road performance. it's a fun project

atleast i'm not buying SS badges and emblems for my car, but i am doing all appearance mods and id love to upgrade the interior to power windows and locks, which means i need the door panels and bezels and it would be nice to sit on leather instead of cloth

 

Im doing the same for my LS after rims it SS bumper+skirts then leather SS seats

 

nice, i had rims but i hit a curb so now i'm riding on steelies for awhile. its amazing how much rims make the LS look better

 

 

lol yea.. sucks

 

That wasn't about your wheels.

 

i wish i had your interior

 

My driver side came off when I went through our car wash. lol
