This is just my opinion, I think if you paint them black they will stick out like a sore thumb and take away from the fine lines of the car.
It is your car and do as you like.
Just not for me.

I don't recall seeing anyone paint their mirrors like you mention. IMO, they look best body color.

Same here!! Try some careful application of black tape and see how it looks!!

I had a red C4 and painted my mirrors black. Looked great with lots of compliments. The only problem i see here is you would have to paint the base of the mirror also (where it attaches to the door). Besides that i thinkit would look good, since you do a have a silver and black scheme going already. TRY IT!!!
