Finally had a bit of decent weather this weekend so fitted my new body coloured mirror covers - very pleased with the results.

I will say that the old ones were a swine to get off - I had to break them in the end... they were original Land Rover ones it turns out and they had been glued on, not taped...

Anyway here's some pics...

Cheers guys - yeah I love the colour, don't see it very often either, most sports seem to be black or silver

Been debating whether to go the whole hog and do the door handles too but looks like mine are first edition one piece jobs so I can only get covers rather than whole new handles...

I'd leave the handles black.

Java handles might look good though.  Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

I think you're probably right - I don't really want to deviate much from standard as she looks great as she is. Just bugs me a little that the handles don't really match any of the other trim colours... they're a sort of light graphite grey colour, not black like the door mouldings?

Ahh, yes. I think they call them "Tungsten". I'd definitely be looking at some Java or Santorini ones then.  Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK
