Paint mirrors

I got a set of black/chrome outside power mirrors from a '95 at a salvage yard. The black plastic portion of the mirrors is faded to grey. Does anyone know of a paint that can be used to restore the black? Could they be painted to match the body colour of the truck? I checked Eastwood online and saw nothing there.

There are some products that claim to restore black plastic to their original color. One that comes to mind is called Black Again.

I saw an outside trim paint at advance auto parts that is supposed to work well, but it only comes in a flat black, not a gloss. It is made by duplicolor. They also make a plastic bumper paint that may work. I think you can get that in a bunch of colors.
