i just painted my power mirrors (from a '89 van, which were black) to the
dove blue to match my 84 van.  
simple.
how, you ask?
go to vw dealer and buy a few cans of touch up spray paint that coorespond to
your van's color, or black (i use rustoleum or krylon satin black, works
great on all vanagon plastic)

I've never seen any kind of spray paint to match a manufacturer's paint at *any* dealer.  Does VW really sell such stuff?  If so, that would be great.  Do they still carry that Neanderthal Green that was offered in the early eighties, in celebration of France's discovery of the cave drawings showing some guy with a fig leaf and what had to be some sort of primeval diesel engine?
