Cool, thanx guys. Well in response to greasemonkey, they said they could do it all, but it would be very expensive cos they would have to get some special stuff, so they suggested that I get them already primed ready to go. So I thought I would save a few quid by getting them all ready.
Cheers

RUB THEM OVER TO GIVE THEM A 'KEY' FOR THE PAINT TO STICK WITH WET AND DRY
JUST LIGHTLY DUST PRIMER OVER TILL ITS TOTALLY COVERED, ITS THE TOP COATS WHICH ARE MORE TRICKY

Just ordered some new mirrors. The guys at the garage said they could spray the mirrors the colour of my car for a few quid as long as they were already primered. As I'm not very 'diy' minded could someone give me a few pointers on how to prime the mirrors ready for spraying. Any help appreciated.
