Ok, so my car JUST got painted like a month ago, and for $1000bucks they didn't do the best job. Anyways, there is some touchups to do and they are taking my car in tomorrow morning to do them. Now, i was thinking, should i get that black stripe along my doors painted to match my car? And Should I get the mirrors painted to match my car? What do you all think??

Agreed, otherwise it screams DX. Get'em painted if you can, definately.

I just noticed his is an LX anyway. I don't know, something about unpainted moldings, handles, and mirrors just look cheap.

k, i'll try to get the mirrors, and stripe painted to match....but i think i should just leave the door handles for now. I can always paint that by myself if i want. And what "moldings" are you talking about that should be painted?
(and i only painted them for the normal paintjob, so might not even be able to get it all painted, i'll keep you updated)

well i can get the mirrors pinated but the guy doing the painting said that the black rubber is not very good to paint and that the paint won't stick to it very well....so i'm not getting that painted...and ican't afford new rims guys..
