    Im thinking of getting my wing mirrors wrapped in gloss black but for a similar cost I can get these http://item.mobileweb.ebay.de/viewit...id=32632626396

    Which would look better?

    Can these be bought in the UK?

    100 quid to wrap some mirrors ???
    a piece of carbon wrap will cost you about £10, then you just stick it on, simples.

    Haha I'd mess it up for sure. The carbon style mirrors are abs plastic. A company near me want £75 all in to wrap in gloss black

    Yeah I guess I could take a punt. My mirrors have indicator slots in them. Nothing ventured.... What's the best type to get? Gloss black would go with the optic pack. Is there a knack to it?

    we just bought some off cuts from ebay. mrs z is in charge of that dept, but you just use a hairdryer to mould it into shapes and a craft knife to cut it to shape. with a bit of practise you can get some pretty good results.
    i would go with carbon myself. gloss black mirrors are so 80s'
