Title: Side mirror wrapping
Post by: ruhaleali on January 12, 2015, 04:36:08 pm
Guys I currently have my mirrors wrapped in carbon fibre 4D to match both my front and back badges. Can anyone recommend nice colours for the mirrors I was thinking brushed silver for the OEM look or possibly 5D carbon very close to the real thing. I am good at wrapping so my wraps don't have any creases etc.

Please comment on a suited colour the car is currently black....?

Thank you

why not black?

Silver mirrors on a black car doesnt sound appealing to be honest.

Audi's look well with silver mirrors, but there are a ton of different silver wraps. 3M have just released a ton of new colours, have a look through them, you might find something else that takes your fancy. Or go find a sign person and ask what off cuts they have cheep!

Mine are silver, they go quite nicely with the r32 grille.
