Got me a pair of W210 blinking mirrors

[Alps]

NW, ive found painted ones have flaked around the indicator in the past, factory painted would be best but in the meantime you could get them painted until you get a set!

I talked to MB Warrington who said the cost of the white ones new was £93 + vat per side as well as being on back order. The parts guy also said though that what different bodyshops they deal with do is, they will buy the mirrors in a different colour and then spray them to match the car. He told me that he had ordered hundreds of silver ones for bodyshops, meanwhile ordering just one white housing . I'm sure it will cost alot less than 200 quid to get them resprayed?

Alps as you said you've found them to flake around the indicator, was this painted by a bodyshop or was this a diy job?

NW, was painted by a bodyshop, not sure where tho, as they were on a freinds car. Defo cost alot less than £200 to get them painted, i guess a good bobyshop may do a better job... all in the prep work !

Apparently my luck is in as a fellow member may be able to provide me with a pair of white covers. If it works out cheaper than getting them sprayed I'll get them instead :bannana:
