Enhance Your Truck’s Exterior Fast with Chrome Mirror Covers

Truck owners are often in an ongoing dilemma. Typically, the reason they own a truck in the first place is because they need one, be it for work or play. They need the extra space, torque, and overall power. Of course, there are different reasons for everyone. But at the same time, like owners of automobiles in other classes, truck owners want to put their own personal stamp on their vehicles. It’s just that it isn’t always easy to do. A lot of times, these drivers are afraid to get too aggressive with their exteriors because they don’t want to dirty up their trucks, and chances are, they will. So the question becomes, why bother hooking up with aftermarket pieces of flash if it’s just going to get all mucked up?


This is why chrome mirror covers for trucks have become such a hot item. Unlike many accessories meant to dazzle and impress, truck chrome mirror covers deliver an understated yet classy approach that lights up the outside of even the most rugged hauler. There is no need to worry about seeing some expensive upgrade you threw on becoming rusted or ruined. Truck chrome mirror covers are not only located in a place that usually doesn’t see too much action (the side-view mirrors), but they are also crafted out of ABS plastic, so the chances of them getting scuffed or cracked is minimal, at best.

One brand that is known for producing top-quality chrome side-view mirror covers is Pilot Automotive. Pilot Automotive Chrome Mirror Covers are a popular choice for most pickup drivers because of their standard of quality in both design and application. Unlike many foreign auto accessory manufacturers, Pilot Automotive Chrome Truck Mirror Covers are manufactured from ABS plastic. That part of the equation is not all that unique, because other companies use the same material. However, Pilot’s chrome mirror covers are also triple chrome plated. This adds on a whole other layer of protection on top of providing a glistening custom finish.

Ford, Chevy, GMC, Dodge...Pilot makes truck chrome mirror covers for all of the big boys. If you ever saunter over to a local car show and you see some pickups in the lot, it’s a pretty good bet that you will notice at least some of the trucks on display sporting chrome mirror covers made by Pilot. The wild part about all of this is that these chrome side-view mirror covers are not expensive at all. Depending on the type of truck you own, most pairs of mirror covers are under $80. UltraRev actually has a host of chrome mirror covers by Pilot on sale for under $50. So in other words, instead of spending a couple hundred bucks on a whole ton of bling for the outside of your ride, for a whole lot less money you can grab a pair of chrome mirror covers. It’s nice to be able to implement a tasteful, luxurious look while keeping your wallet intact, isn’t it?

Installing truck chrome mirror covers is also an extremely simple task. All it really requires is about 5-10 minutes of your time and preferably, a day without rain. What you want to do first is take one of the covers out of the box and do a “test fit.” This will allow you to make sure the covers will fit on exactly to factory specs. Next, take a paper towel or rag with some rubbing alcohol and wash the mirror housing. The reason you want to do this is to get any dust or debris off of the surface. Since Pilot Automotive Truck Chrome Mirror Covers are backed with 3M adhesive, from here it’s just a “peel & stick” application. Unpeel the 3M tape and place your cover over the mirror housing, somewhat gently stamping it on to confirm it is snug. And that’s basically it. There are TV commercial breaks that take longer it seems than it does to install chrome mirror covers.
