Remove them and smooth them out and then paint them.

You can get them from the dealership or you can pant them like KySilverado and I have done. I had the the entire mirror painted and really like the way they turned out, still looking pretty good a couple of years later.

I have the power folding mirrors and since I have a single car garage I allways use that option so they would get paint where the mirror hinges and I don't trust that it would be done to my liking so I would rather just get the caps. Thanks for the advice.

mine are power folding too, with heaters and self adjusting drivers side mirror The space where it hinges is thin and not cleared but its really minor and not noticible when open. I use the power folders whenever I park. Caps are certainly easier.

My truck came with the black textured covers. I bought some on-line from a business that color matched them for a fee. They turned out great and match my paint perfectly.
