Gloss Black mirrors

Has anyone seen or painted their wing mirrors gloss black on a LCI E90? Wondering what it would look like as I'm thinking of doing mine.

My brother painted his black on his 07 E92 that's what got me thinking, its just the LCI ones are a lot bigger! I think wrapping them might be the way to go at first and see what they look like.
