white, chrome, or black?

Hey guys. Ive been looking for a set of tow mirrors for my 06 GMC because the sport ones just dont do the job!

I'm not having any problems finding them but i can't decide what will look best. Stay with black (ahh looks too stock, not enough class)? Go chrome (cant find all chrome just chrome merrior and black mount)? Paint them white (leaning twords this but dont know how it will look)?

If anybody can help me with this it would be a big help. Maybe some pics of white trucks with white tow mirrors if anybody has one or, if anybody knows where i can find 100% chrome that would be easiest!!! REALLY I AM HOPING SOMEBODY HAS A PICK FOR ME!!

chrome with extensions painted white!! its all about the details ...you probably won't see many people taking the time to paint the extensions to match truck color!! then a little chrome out there would be a great detail!!it would look gtreat next to nerf bar and trim strip like it was meant to be there!! having the same issue here passenger stock mirror just broke zip tie holds it ..while i decide which mirror style to go with...stock with chrome or chrome tow mirrors... don't tow much...
