Default Replacement side mirrors?

I was wondering if anyone makes replacement side mirrors for the s197s that aren't black, but primer (or already painted)? I've been looking around a little, but I'm sure I don't know nearly as many good aftermarket part websites as you guys.

While I don't dislike the stock black mirrors, I think having them match the color of the rest of the car would look even better.

So if you guys could give me a link or something to where I can find replacement side mirrors, that'd be awesome.

Wow thanks, I swear I looked all over American Muscle and I didn't see any... [&o]

I don't really like those ones though, they look a little funky to me, but thanks again for the help!

Agent 47 also makes "retro" mirrors. They look WAY better than the Xenon ones IMO.

Has anybody tried painting the stock mirrors?

Heres what I did. Bought to new mirrors from this place on Ebay. They are exact replacements. Power and all. Sanded them down smooth while watching TV one eve. Didn't take long. Then I did the primer, color, and clear thing. Once the mirrors were done, I simply swapped them out. It takes about 3 minutes to swap out the mirrors. I had no down time for my ride and I still have the OEM mirrors to boot. BTW, the car looks so much better with the mirros painted. Why Ford opts to paint the Fusion mirros and not the Mustang's is beyond me.

SilverHorse Racing sells the Agent 47 mirrors prepainted. I had them make a set custom for me, which costs extra. They also sell them in an OEM type finish.

Gotta say on a color other than black that two-tone look for the Agent 47 mirrors painted by SHR is the way to go. Those make your car hot!!!!

what do you mean a custom set, could you clarify? (I'm assuming its not the two tone)

Does the "OEM type finish" match the texture of the stock mirrors?

Yes, the 2 tone was the custom thing done. They sanded them down (because without painting, they have a few seams) and painted the support satin black and the housing red.

The color is similar to stock. The finish is smoother. But again, without painting, there are a couple of seams.
