Hello
I bought these over the weekend, so they have not arrved yet but its not just a cover its the complete unit... so a easy and quick swap. http://tmdtuning.com/shop/tmd-gloss-mirror/ My car is santorini black, these are gloss black however I doubt will look much different? Places like Urban truck I think will colour match or you could get a body shop to do it? When they arrive I will post a pic 
The issue I have now is that there is more nice stuff on this web site and I now have these and the side vent on my list of things to buy..... http://tmdtuning.com/shop/tmd-genesis-wing-tops/ aarrgghhh  |

I have the ones from TMD on my Santorini black 110, they are a close enough match and look great.
The only thing with mine was the foam they'd wrapped them in was stuck to the paint and left a patterned imprint of foam sheet on the paint, which needed a cut and polish to get out. Looked almost like they'd packaged them before the paint had properly cured, but they turned out well. |

^^^^ Indeed, packaged before they've 'gassed off' and not fully cured.

I'd like to find corris grey covers for mine. I wont be buying complete replacement mirrors again though after the last pair I bought refused to stay upright. They ended up in the trash where they belonged.

I second CSK.
Chris sorted me a set in Corris. Been on for 2 years plus and no issues at all. I would go for a cover as apposed to a complete mirror. If you or somebody else smashes the mirror it's always going to be cheaper to have separate bits to replace rather than a whole unit that needs painting. Removable caps will cost £50-£70. Painted mirrors will cost £120-£180! |

They aren't difficult to paint yourself if you were so inclined.

Hi Chris,
I bought the Mud ones which were about £20 and had them painted Corris and I think they finish the 90 off a treat. The painting was done as part of getting all the satin black done gloss, mirror arms, side steps, rear X member + NAS step so don't know how much they'd be on their own Mark |

I can't find the Mud ones, but I'm tempted by these as I recon they look like a decent match unpainted for the poverty spec wheel arch eyebrows on my 2.2 - and if all else fails I can paint 'em
