The NPC "Blackwater" at Maltz in BG can't change fullplate, breastplate and chainshirt made of mithral (those I could test), when there is at least one special property (apart from Material (Mithral)).
In that case, only 1 choice of appearance is possible (some kind of warlock armor) for mithral armors.
This issue's been there for some time, hope it will be working fully in the future.

Re: Appearance changer for mithral armors at Maltz
On some mithril-armors (as example Breastplate of Hidden Imaskar) you get only One choice.
Choose that one.
Then use the default appearance changer to change it now without problems to the appearance you like.

No the issue is still there. You have to get a DM to help you and will need to know what appearance number you want.

It's not an Issue - it's a workaround - and works like a charmTheodore01 wrote:On some mithral-armors (as example Breastplate of Hidden Imaskar) you get only One choice.

I just changed a mithral fullplate with 3 random attributes two days ago.

Always screenshot first 
If the text is this color, I am on duty, everything else is just my humble opinion.

Re: Appearance changer for mithral armors at Maltz
IIRC, Luna set up a "changing room" feature for this. I put an example in Soubar. I believe the barber shops in Sshamath and BG offer it too. Perhaps someone will try this out as I cannot test it with my own PCs.
FWIW, I really do not know why mithral armor appearances were split from other metals on the AppChanger. The feature predates me being sucked behind the curtain.

No solution is required, just the above!
To break it down into plain language.
1. Go and visit Blackwater and ask to change mithral armour appearance.
2. You will be given one possible appearance choice. Choose it and save.
3. Exit Blackwater.
4. Open the regular Item Appearance changer from the NWN Eye icon and alter your mithral armour as you would with any other regular armour.
5. Enjoy!
