only thing is, the paintwork will probably show where the UK spec mirrors were as the aero type have narrower mounting arms...





doesn\'t matter to me as my car will need paint anyway but if you aren\'t planning on painting...

Keep the cricket bats somewhere safe mate....In case I smash one of mine.
(I have collected some spare ones but they had been sprayed Silver).

They do look good though Ian.

Ian,
I,m finally thinking about sorting out my mirrors!
 
How did u spray yours,did u primer,then black paint on top or just apply the black paint with no primer?
What colour black did u use satin or matt?
 
My gaskets are split,so i\'ll need to source new ones,were yours alright or did u make/get new gaskets?

My were in great condition and I didn\'t need to spray them. If I was going to though, I\'d use plastic primer on the backs and satin on top of that.
I only got 1 gasket with the morrors and I lost that while I was waiting to fit them. I made 2 out of some self adhesive foam sheet ( the kind that doesn\'t retain water)

I have a couple of the rubber mirror bases - prob not in great condition, but they should clean up...if they\'re any use to you?
