Was a bit of a knob yesterday and wasent paying attention to the lampost that is on my driveway (dont ask why we have one) and caught my mirror when reversing in. It cracked the glass and chipped the housing.

I got a new glass from work today and fitted it all back so im back on the road properly. But it looks a bit battered with the chipped housing. However if i was to buy a replacement it would cost £30 (single unit) where as i could get a pair on M3 style units with fitting plates from www.carismastyle.co.uk for £25. so im thinking about getting some of these but im unsure how they will look :S

so does anyone have any pics of some on their corsa. or any other after market mirrors for that matter. As i need to know wether to go after market or keep em standard

Thanks for reading Gavin

if the rest of the car is standard, get standard mirrors, i think aftermarket mirrors only look good if youve got big kits etc....

looks better now i have colour coded door handles and eyebrows, plus have gsi spoiler. i like them but it does get mixed opinions.

I think all after market mirrors do, but do agree original ones do look good!

Cheers for the replys i think il replace the standard one with another one as my car is pritty standard.
Although the one i knocked off aint looking to bad now its polished up . I may colour code them as well to match as looking at some on the cars on here they make the car look aload better.

Cheers Gavin

You can get the housings separate (well you can on colour coded ones anyway) about £13 from vaux.
