Nice mods. Love the side skirt. Lowers the car without lowering it. 8)

Looks good! How did you remove the mirror? Then is it the hex bolt to remove the cover?

Handy vid here to remove the mirror glass

Then you need to unclip the glass electrics, then remove 3 bolts for the gimble, then 4 bolts that hold the internal body to the cover as well as 1 bolt underneath, then just unhook it off two clips and it slides off

What's the other connector you have there in the mirror? Is that for a photochromatic mirror?
Looks good BTW

Yes exactly that mate, but looking at replacing them with standard glass as the passenger one has “leaked” internally and they generally don’t work anyway as the sensor is on the rear view mirror and I keep the wind deflector in permanently

Just trying to work out whether to have the inner parts of the wheel sprayed black but keep the front face silver…

I've been thinking about this too. Matt black so the dust / dirt is harder to see! Haha!

I saw these, one like mine one with the black inner - definitely looks better

Thanks mate - it’s take a lot of work to get it from this to that but we got there ha!

Did you wrap the pillars yourself? (Assuming that’s what you did)

Just trying out wrapping myself and I was surprised out how forgiving it was when I did my front grill so want to try other parts of the car as it’s so easily removable as well. Just not sure how to do parts like the pillars!
