^^^^ and spacers 
How much are the CS caps?
Around 50 quid if I recall correctly
Ouch!
Well, maybe not too bad really if they don't corrode as badly as the older VW centre caps used to.
Today a pigeon decided to fly into the side of me at 70mph. I've had the car 2 months and it's the second bird I've hit, the first being a pheasant.
This car is a bird magnet in the wrong sense 
It's bust my wing mirror. Well, the plastic indicator part of it to be exact.
The wing mirror works fine. It automatically folds in and the indicator still works. I'm wondering if I could get away with replacing the plastic part as I suspect a new wing mirror will cost a small fortune?
Is that just the indicator lens broken or other plastic bits?
I can't quite tell from the pic viewing on the phone screen.
Without going back to parking arguments I had a Q7 (or something like that) driver decide to hit my non folding mk6 mirror in a car park and I replaced the plastic lens and mirror lens myself and polished out the paintwork damage to the upper part of the mirror.
It wasn't that expensive but very annoying and needless.
It seems to be pigeon mating season at the moment as a couple of times I've had to slow to almost a stop in country roads because there have been a few pigeons "getting it on" in the road.
Obviously their minds are on other things than potentially lethal cars hitting them right now.
