Which one looks worse?

Ok I recently installed my led turn signal mirrors and i dont have the money to paint them as of yet so i did it myself. Here are some pictures of before and after i panted them. Should I have just left them white or is my messed up painting good enough for now.

I think it's safe to say the painting is fine for now...matches the factory paint ok...i would not have left the white...that would have looked very primer-ish...

They both look bad, but the white looked worse.

He did an excellent job. As Jepht20 said, I would've have known you painted it yourself. Looks great!
