you dont need to take them off
you just cover the car and paint the thing you want

dude so inside there is a black cover thingy. you can use a flat head to pop it out. careful because you might scratch it and maybe crack it. but then you can use a philps head to remove the screws. be sure to catch the mirror or it will fall and break

it should take you less than five minutes if that to take them off. Make sure you don't lose the black inside cover, like I did because the road noise is going to be a little bit louder inside.

I believe you have power mirrors don't forget to unplug the wires. It has a white, almost transparent, plastic clip on it. Just push and pull. That's it, nothing to it bro.

FYI fixing a car is the easiest thing to do. as long as you where thing goes then it should fit in.
