You could paint them black, hydro dip or carbon fiber wrap.

The AoA site now states the Carbon Optic package comes with painted mirrors but "Engine cover with Carbon Fiber inserts".

Did your car come with CF Engine cover inserts?

I want to make sure I get this straight, as I am about to order my 2015: so if I order the CF package [but not the extended CF package], my mirrors will be painted in the body color? It's what the order form says, and I sure hope that's right, because that is exactly what I want. Unfortunately, my experience with dealers is that they often do not seem to understand al the various options and the interplay.

UPDATE: my dealer just confirmed via email that my understanding is correct. The basic CF package comes with mirrors painted the body color.
