Black gloss mirrors - Would you?

Would you go with black gloss mirrors on my MK5 in Shadow blue?

I think it brings out the black gloss of the grille surround.

Think Saint Steve did this to his car - gloss black on a lot of parts.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

It's hard to see the black in this pic. Have you got one which shows the black more? Nice colour by the way!!

This is on my 'to do' list.  Reflex Silver car with Gloss Black mirror casings.  Go for it!
