Default Mirror trim?

Super random.......but does anyone know if they sell the plastic base trim for our side mirrors anywhere? It's just a little black plastic trim piece that is oval in shape and goes around the base of our mirrors. My driver side piece is pretty weathered/worn and is starting to crack and fall apart. Little details like this drive me up the wall! My fear is that the piece is part of the mirror assembly itself. I have also contemplated removing the pieces altogether since I am having the entire car Plastidipped a new color this week and am still on the fence on whether I should have the shop tape the mirror base trim off or just dip over it. Thoughts?

Yeah I dropped the car off this morning to get dipped (and the dip place also shares a building with an exhaust shop so I am having my exhaust fabbed up w/ my Megan Racing M-RS muffler as well) and talked to him about it and he just reccomended that I dip over the mirror rings to cover the wear on them. And the beauty of plastidip....if I decide I that I don't want dip on them I can simply peel it off

Did anyone ever happen to find where these can be purchased? I can't imagine having to purchase an entire new mirror assembly just to get that little plastic ring.

Prob your best bet is to contact those that are parting out cars that were totaled.
