I've been dealing with them for a long time, they installed the side mirrors on my sis's celica when the factory mirror's motor's died. The new mirrors came unpainted and so we had Silva's install and paint the mirror's and they did an excellent job with matching the paint, especially since the whole car has been repainted an aftermarket color. I'll see if i can get some pictures of the car later when i get off of work for you.
Im just very hesitant about this color because so many times i see people try to get it color matched and it just looks tacky. Like obviously that is a kit and just doesnt blend in. @SilentAngel thanks will contact them next week if not the week after. Depends on work.

Yea, NP they do really good work, and that paint on the car is an aftermarket paint. It's like a dark blue metallic, but looks black at night sometimes lol.

I usually take mine to the one here in Madera, or Michael's Toyota on Bullard where I bought it. Tried the one in Clovis, cuz my dad lives in Clovis and it was just really bad, definitely won't be going back.
