Until today, every shiny mirror front I had seen was chromed plastic. But after removing this dented one & finding no dents on the back, I looked a little closer & saw the swaged edge of the polished stainless steel face. I used small end-cutting pliers to fold the edge back, & remove the plastic backing. I washed the plastic, and sprayed it with some satin black, and then baked it in front of a 300W halogen light for a few minutes.
Apparently, the stainless face was only used on VERY early '92 mirrors because I've found '93 & '96 mirrors with the plastic face.
