      Here's the exact mirrors I got. I had to get the universal ones and a seperate carbon fiber plate to cut my own adapters with because they don't make them for the accord any more.

          No paint on the lip. If anything, I'd do the center.

            Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
            Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
            Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
            Torque is how far you take the wall with you

                  Don't paint them. All of the colors you listed look terribly out of place on the car.

                    Leave it, but if u must paint it, the center or maybe even the lip painted the body color would look pretty good.

                          paint them all black...black lip and black center

                          "None are more hopelessly enslaved, than those who falsely believe they are free"

                          • Johann Wolfgang vonGoethe, 1749-1832-

                          "There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One by the sword. The other is by debt."
                          -John Adams, 1735-1826-

                              I'd say leave them how they are but if you want to paint them, color match the lip to your car.
