Painting mirrors

[Ironhead]

I have a set of SS street scene mirrows i took off of black to install on my CE ,,they are black so i want to paint them white,,


my question is has anyone taken these apart,,i need to get the mirrow and motor out of them because they are black plastic and i want inside of them painted also ,just looking at them i dont see a way to get internal parts out yet ,,have not mess with them yet was hoping someone has done this already ,,

 

[Ironhead]

why take them apart just to paint them.

it is made out of black abs plastic i dont want the inside showing black behind mirrows when tilted to one side ,,ya im being anal ,,but i figured it out ,,has tiny clips holding mirrows on motors ,,had to bend a cheap screwdriver and put tape on shaft so i would not scratch it up and pop the clips up and they came right off ,,,

I love the three handles not real big in to the little mirrors. But that's just me.

[Midnight Runner]

Yes he is, and then he sprays them with a adhesive then a primer then the paint and last the clear coat.
