Refinishing black mirrors and other stuff

Hi Gang,

What's the best way to refinish the black parts on the exterior of our cars? Specifically, I'm thinking of the outside mirrors, the e12 trademark black "fins" behind the rear windows, the black front grills, and the grill on the front hood (air vent intake)? Can these just be painted with black paint? Is there any special paint I should use? I want a nice "factory" finish, so is the best thing just to take the parts to a body shop and have them do it? Can they also re-chrome the silver parts on the front grills?

Thanks,
Jim
