I purchased a can of SEM flat black and bulldog sticky icky promoter. I scuffed up the chrome with a 3M red pad. Cleaned it and put 3 to coats of adhesive promoter and 3 coats of black. Hopefully it sticks.
Black and white:

The mirror matches the rim quite well. I'm slowly taking the chrome off, but the other dilemma is matte black or gloss. I kinda screwed that up with the grill and nerf bars, but it makes my RAM unique.

Here's where I scuffed the raised portion of the 4X4 badge and used the same process as above.

Looks good, I've been thinking of painting my mirrors and will if I can't get used to the reflection image you pick up on the side of the mirrors, so far the chrome mirros have been distracting.
