The series 3 comes with the back panels of the mirrors painted, as well as the black rubber strips down the sides, and i reckon it looks shmick!

Colour coded, plain and simple, in fact I wish my AU was colour coded.

colour coding for sure, will eventually get mine done but i gotta try and find someone who can match me paint, i got a pressure pack from Autobarn to spray the hawk grill i put on and it isn't even close to the colour of the rest of the car, does anyone know anyone in the Geelong area who can do this at a reasonable price,
PS sorry for the added question to the original thread Cheers |

If you are getting something else painted it would be a great opportunity to colour code you mirrors and consider side molds at the same time.

get them color coded so i can see what it looks like.........nah just kidding personally i would leave it. it looks the goods having tint and that whole window area black. but i would say do the side moulding if they arent alredly done. just go to the GK's workshop build to see (our) color and how it looks.

I had black ones not too long ago on the ute ... and I had mine colour-coded Winter White ... and it looks 10 times better than black.
Now I need to get the B-pillars painted gloss black .. much better than the current matt black.

Sparkling Burgundy is the Best Paint around , Apart from Congo Green (Winks at George and Normell)
White is too white (sorry Simon) and Black is too.. Racist lol Daniel

I bought a Monsoon Blue AU II Fairmont last week
Such a nice colour and colour coded mirrors / side mouldings look VERY nice! |
