Black Wing Mirrors - Now Fitted

[Jimmymature]

Had the wifes Mini Cooper S's roof and mirrors vinyl wrapped today, Union Jacks 
Thinking of getting my roof and mirrors done in black gloss or Matt black then laminated 
what are your thoughts on this ? answers on a postcard  please 

I say go for it Neil. I think it would look quality especially in tandem with your black CH's. How much was the vinyl rap on the mini out of interest?

I'm getting a price on a matt black wrap for my mirrors from Carbonskin.

Here are their prices for roof, full cars etc.  I don't know what their work is like as never dealt with them (yet)

^Blimey! Is it just me or is a bonnet a bit steep compared to a whole hatchback? Like the idea of black mirrors although i prefer gloss over matte.

Matt black all the way for me, not sure about the roof though.

I'd go gloss personally.... not sure if the matt black is chavy?

Yeah gloss for me too. What is wrap like for stone chips? How much for getting the wing mirrors done?

The sensible thing maybe to do is just to by a couple of replacent wing mirror covers ( I think there only about £15 each ) then get them wrapped or painted.

Then you can keep the original ones in case you need to put them back on for whatever reason.

Yes mate, my exact plan, I'm still waiting for a reply to my price request from them.  I'll chase them this morning and post a price when I get them.

£15 each for a new cover?  That's a lot cheaper than I expected

Yeh I'm sure there around that. I had one replaced and painted after some fool on a motorbike damaged one of mine.

Me likes the vinyl roofs on these CW GTI's

I agree, they look very nice. Much nicer than I thought they would.
