Default A Little Improvement...

I ordered some genuine carbon fibre WRC mirrors before Christmas and I picked them up today and popped into Dylan's on the way home to check there were no fitment issues.

As it happened the two factory mounting screws were so tight I couldn't budge them, at this point I gave up and Dylan took over - he had to drill out both screws.

Thanks Dylan, I think they look good and far better than the factory units.

There's a link below to some pics I put up in the Members Gallery.

ps thanks Dylan for the chips and the cup of tea.

Corrr, those mirrors look great!

Was nice to see your C-spec at Dylan's today. Very very nice

To be honest with the price of them if I hadn't specially ordered them I might have be tempted to have left them with the supplier, but as they were made to order and it wouldn't have been fair to have lumbered Melvyn Evans with them.

TBH they took a while to arrive and I had more or less thought discarded the fact that they would arrive, and with the expense I have incurred lately I could have done without them but they do look go though.

Methinks a WRB STI scoop would look gloriously un-co-ordinated on my car!

And I doubt if you want to keep that roof vent, do ya?

I'd quite like to keep the roof vent on my car, otherwise the rain would get me.
