Thank you. I hadn't noticed it before, but the flat gray just didn't look right.

The back of my mirror is flat gray. Perhaps your mirror was replaced with a '54 Clipper mirror at some point.

Let's get clear, are we speaking of the interior mirror, or an exterior mirror? I took the question to be an exterior mirror.

I am referring to the interior mirror in the front window. The non-mirrored side of the mirror is flat gray, while the post that attaches it to the window molding is chrome-plated.

AHAH! I took it to mean the outside mirror, sorry. I can't answer definately but the backside of the interior RV mirror on my 54 Patrician was painted the darker of the two body colors on the back (the upper dashboard color). I have a friend down the street with an unmolested 53 Caribbean and I'll ask him about his and edit this post tomorrow with the info.

RIght, i have a 54 convert. and the rear view interior mirror is originally chrome.
I know that my grandfather's 53 Cavalier also had a chrome mirror.
