    Matte black might look better. I have a Limited with the chrome mirrors. I was looking at these caps on Amazon, but I think I am going with a wrap instead. I need my door handles wrapped as well.

    Love the black, and I think black door handles will add nice contrast too or maybe black door molding on side to prevent dings. Nice truck!

    Rob i really like your videos, I have a white 2020 white tacoma, I'm wanting to change my mirrors to black, I'm looking to change bumpers to black as well,
    (tacoma orca killer whale)
    But instead of buying black caps what about plasti dipping the mirrors?
    Or would the paint crack after reinstalling?
    As it might be cheaper than ordering black replacement ones?
    Your thoughts?

      Given the possibility of flex during reinstall, I’d go with new parts. Of course, you might get lucky if you’re very careful🤔

    Looks good, you can always change it back. In the eighties, euro cars were all solid colors with matching grills, mirrors, wipers, and, wheels. Then the euro cars that raced specifically BMWs and Golfs started changing their mirrors to black or red. I kind of see the same design going on with your ride. Keep it up, it's your vehicle and it will still look good.
