Black side mirrors on summit white ZL1? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

SocalZL1 · 09-03-2014, 11:57 AM

I'm going for a black and white (storm trooper) look. Does anyone have any pics of black mirrors on a summit white ZL1. Any thoughts on the idea? I'm considering showstoppers side mirrors or stock black.

Should look nice...i hate all the body color stuff. I want to have my mirrors and rear spoiler done in black.

ZL1-V · 09-03-2014, 12:36 PM

I would do the same if I had a white ZL1. It gives the car a bit of contrast.

What if you did half black, like the Saleen Camaro? I always loved that look!

CompulsiveZL1 · 09-03-2014, 02:02 PM

I like your thinking! - summit white would look really nice with black mirrors and spoiler. I did my mirrors Ashen Grey Met to closely match the roof/trunk stripe, carbon hood insert and carbon spoiler. I really like the look.

hmmm, interesting. I really like that look. Where did you get the wrap or where did you have it done? I wouldn't mind doing that on mine.

Sometimes when you put black mirrors on a car that isn't black, it looks like you replaced them without getting them painted haha

Lmao I thought about that also.

Thanks guys! Yeh I agonized over which color to paint the mirrors, then I saw an Ashen Grey Met 2013 ZL1 and noticed how close the carbon hood insert matched that color - I was sold. The spoiler is true carbon fiber from Seibon Carbon in SoCal.. I purchased through the Moreno Brothers here on Camaro5. I had the mirrors painted at a local body shop. Love the look - subtle - but looks like it should have come that way from the factory.

Thanks again for the kind words!

I'll have to play with the mirrors to see what they look like. But I have flat black all over my stormtrooperZL1
