Chrome Mirrors

New Member, first post.

I just bought a used 2005 C230k sport 4door. The only issue is the previous owner bought it with the Chrome mirror upgrade, which I think kills the car. The question I have, is this chrome housing on top of the mirrors that can be removed or will I have to get them painted?

It can be removed, but most likely you'll have to paint them anyway. Remove the chrome cover first then you decide.
BTW, welcome
