    Hello everyone, new to the forums from the SF bay area and the new to the Prius world, much to my surprise my wife traded in our 2015 Ford fusion for a 16 Blizzard Pearl 3 (hence the screen name).

    But since the purchase we've been talking about painting the chrome mirror strips. But my question is it easy to remove them to paint or easier to mask everything off around them and just paint on the car? Any help would be appreciated.

    Are you planning on going with the Blizzard Pearl also? If you are thinking black, it would be easy to use Plastidip. You can put that on while it's on the car.
