Title: parts where to buy
Post by: aljaxon on July 21, 2014, 10:52:54 AM
some idiot in an oncoming car came right into my lane and hit my wing mirror (nearly killed us!!)
the cover has disappeared
where is a good place to buy spares such as that that are cheapish?

yeah thought so, it looks like the wing mirror is a complete item and the cover that is missing on mine isn't available separately
now I just need to know what my colour is . .  id say dark blue

And expensive too, around £120.00 + Vat. If the mounting is damaged, add about the same again for that!

nope, and I didn't realise a bit had come off as I just pushed it back into position and all seemed fine
the car behind me dropped back suddenly but I just didn't put two and two together
