The mirrors are not that badto do i had the wife holding the heat gun while i wraped them round.
best thing to do is cut the wrap about twice the size as the mirror so it covers it all when you pull it round ill just keep the heat there. very easy to work with. and i have loads left can feel myself going crazy doing the whole car lol
ill add pics on how to do it later . :happy2:
and yes the bumpers were a great buy cant wait for mine to come im having chopped and cut to fit my standard back box as i sold my custom r32 one to my mate for buying me the bumper

Looking good mate I had my mirrors wrapped until some idiot decided to clip my wing mirror and rip it all lol they do look good though

Great work mate. Mirror's look cool, might do mine like that :drinking:

Hope your CF Mirror wraps dont shrink back over the coming weeks snake.Mine were wrapped twice and they still tried to shink back and reveal the painted colour underneath. :fighting:
Ive ended up just painting my mirror housings after the wraps kept shinking. Cocopops also on here had the same issue.
