Ok guys/gals, I need some advice.
Boyfriend has a 99 Chevy Silverado 1500.
He has always been talking about getting color matching front bumper/mirrors and a billet grill.
So I got to pondering the idea of getting some color matching mirrors for him for christmas.
Now, I know that the Tahoes came with color matching, so I can go to pull-a-part and hope to find one in maroon with both in tact and in good shape.
Or I can order 2 new ones/find 2 decent ones and have them painted.
Here is my question, does it sound like a stupid idea or would it be more expensive than what I'm thinking? (buying 2 new or used & getting painted to match).
Also, I can't look at the truck right now, but does anyone know how difficult it is to remove the mirrors? I believe his are power, I'd have to double check tho. Like if I went to pull a part and found some, could I do it with standard tools? I'm assuming door panel would have to come off.
Here is a picture of said truck:
Sorry for crappy quality, but its the most recent one I can find.
Here's a little older one:
Only difference is the bowtie is now black
(sorry if this is in the wrong section, it seemed kinda lounge worthy instead of general tech.)
