Jeff, I just painted a set of electric mirror housings with SEM "Trim Paint" #39143. Its a satin finish and is holding up well although I've only had it on there a month. Be sure to let the part dry for 48 hours as the can recommends before handling. The great thing about it is I can touch up the mirrors whenever the mood strikes me. It seems pretty durable but if you want more flexible paint they also sell a lot of other paints for bumpers, etc: http:// new.goodspeedmotoring.com/?page=subcat&man_id=24 Most auto body supply houses will carry SEM stuff. SEM has a rattle can for everything.
