    anyone try painting their mirrors to give it that rs6 brushed aluminum look instead of paying out the a$$ for those mirror covers? Think that might be something i try this weekend, just didnt know if anyone has given it a shot.

    I did and they look very similar to the original RS6 mirrors. I used Duplicolor High heat aluminum engine paint. If you would like more details LMK

    FYI - Those are plastic caps, not the real deal. $200+ (including shipping) for plastic caps is a bit steep IMHO. You can find OEM brushed aluminum mirror housings on eBay Germany for between $300-$500 depending on whether or not the glass and innards are included.
