It's not painted black. The color of the plastic is black. No shine, no paint, just black plastic. It looks great on my green car though. You can't even tell!

I don't think it's painted. But if you need a black one you might get away without painting it, because it looks good enough just as it is. My old Honda is silver, which means the left mirror is silver too, but I never painted the right one after mounting it. And it looks fine. Maybe I'll just buy one for the left side just to match the black one. The prize is very competitive.

The one I got is uncolored, clear plastic. That's also what the current picture looks like.

Going by memory I would say a glass mirror bonded to a black plastic backing. It looks like any normal mirror with a bit of tint. Didn't notice any negative aspects to the quality of the reflection. I put them on my daughter's car.

This mirror does comes with the back cover piece painted in black. Fortunately, the painted one from my car (white) was still intact, so I was able to snap it on to the replacement mirror.

My car wasn't black, so I don't know. However, if I had it to do over again i'd find one at a junk yard even if it cost more. The quality and the part is not the same as the factory. This is an after market part. After having mine painted and installed I was informed by the body shop that the motorized mirror would move in direction but not the other. So now I either try to send it back painted and if they take it I spend the time and money to get the new one painted and installed or keep this one that now matches my car but doesn't work. These are made way cheep! Another try is to ask your body shop about getting you one.

It's black. Has no shine. No paint whatsoever. It is literally fresh out the factory. Comes with no screws or bolts. Just a black bumper. Looks a little faded in the sunlight.

It is a paintable finish. They are sold only in black and are "paint to match" meaning buyer can paint it to match vehicle.

The finish is gloss black paint. It scratches up like most things, will but it is pretty easy to touch up.

I got the black one and it still looks clean but that could be because it's black. It does have some scratches.

It is not a dark, shiny, all over black. It is predominately black, with bronze showing through in spots, like if you wanted to antique something and sanded areas to give it a distressed look. The overall surface is matt.

Hello, Unfortunately we do not paint the mirror, you would have to take the item to a professional to get it painted. I apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you

It's shiny black, but not like a car finish paint. I bought a can of matched automotive paint at napa for $20 and scuffed it then painted it. Put it on by myself. Mirror works fine.

It's painted black so it's hard to tell. I will tell you this...you won't regret getting this board. I love mine. I ride it to work just about everyday.

If the mirror is new and looks that way when you got it, make sure you peal off the protective film that covers the mirror when it's shipped. If you've been using it a while and it has gotten scratched, then I'd be inclined to try some plastic polish to restore the finish.

It is black. I have yet to finish building it because the glass door was cracked and they sent me two of the same side pieces so I have been waiting to get the replacements. But yes the color is black.

Yes, I have the exact same problem. The mirror looks just like a circus mirror. It is scratched and distorted. When you tap on it, it sounds like plastic. There was a protective piece of plastic on it but I tore that off and If there is another plastic coating on it, it is stuck so well that I cannot find an edge to peel it off. I have used a flash light and gone all the way around the edge looking for one. I am extremely disappointed. I have emailed the seller to see if there is a plastic coating on it and what the trick is to getting it off otherwise, no way the mirror can be used.

It is part of the mold and the picture shows it painted black. It is all one piece and you will tape off the areas that you want black or any other color and paint it to look like it is a separate piece.
