Question Black Mirrors on IP???

Ok guys, I'm going to be having a little paint work done soon and I can't decide if I should do my mirrors in IP with the black bases matched, or do them in black to match the roof and other accents. Here's a pic of my car as it is now, along with a photochop of each option. Keep in mind I'm going to black the headlights, but I'm probably going to leave the window trim chrome.

As it is now


IP matched bases


Gloss black mirrors




Thoughts?

^Yeah, it's black. You can just barely tell from the pic. I would have used a better pic to show the roof off more, but I didn't have another good one that was recent enough. I need to go take some more but the weather has been at odds with my schedule.
