Carbon Fibre mirrors. C207

[SmartAmg]

Can you ditch the carbon fibre for plain gloss black? I think it would look better.

What, like these?


Suppose it's a thought, but I do like Carbon Fibre,
(real or fake as long as the fake looks good) plus they would go nicely with my rear spoiler.

One of each?

If you want to change the colour then maybe the black, but then again I've never seen a white car with red mirrors

At least they aren't fake carbon!

Sorry I like it as it is, if you want to go black you need to wrap the rear chrome number plate light housing and exhaust tips as well as the mirror shrouds

That looks ok, my wife is looking at getting a 500 Abarth, what are the chances.

That has been said before!

Go with black and gloss black will make it look more like an AMG! Red would go with the interior lighting though

Rear chrome on boot already done, painted though not wrapped, wouldn't do exhaust tips, like them chrome, would
do window surrounds if I could find a good way of doing them , wouldn't get black wheels either like them silver.

Maybe black exhaust tips would look good seeing as you've deleted all other Chrome bits?

You can have the chrome window surrounds wrapped black and the DLRs, I came across a 212 estate in dark blue that was fully dechromed it looked amazing which totally surprised me as I didn’t think it would work.

I believe you might be able to pick off the chrome from the window surrounds leaving the black underneath

Dependent on the model year the chrome effect is usually a plated aluminium substrate on a shiny black carrier.

and..it looks stupid..white body - black stalks - red mirror covers

 

[JBell]

Grangemouth were selling genuine Black wing mirror covers a while ago for £80

 

[SmartAmg]

As an alternative to all red or all black, what about these?

I quite like these but can't think what colour car they would go with.
