It'll probably be like using the center console...it "fits" but a trained eye sees it doesnt really mate up.

They physically bolt on but without modification to the lower lip of the mirror they do not look right.

precisely! thats why i was asking, just to see how people cut the bottom part... i just happened to be looking at my gf's brothers mirrors(he has 02 mirrors on his 96) without the bottom cut..

plus i wanted to see if anyone painted just the mirror or the whole thing..

I plan on getting them and shaving the bottom edge down to fit....

the whole thing definately should not be painted body color.. it would look funny....
