Original post was 17 years ago.

paint idea!! I have not tried it (yet). But why not go with original colors and then "jazz" it up with that new pint that you can peal off!?? Still stick with the 'original' and also have creative freedom...

My mirror is high on the left. Round... Check out some photos...
