      Wing Mirrors and a large scrape!

      So a few months ago I was backing into my drive-way without a passenger door mirror. It was all fun and games until I scraped the corner of the back bumper! DOH!

      Does anyone know what I/garage/Halfords can do to repair this at little cost?

      Also, I replaced the wing mirrors only a few weeks ago to silver as they were the cheapest and easiest I could find and came at little cost considering they were shipped from the US (they looked very sporty). However, when left in town over night, some a** kicked the passenger mirror off again! So as you can imagine, I am completely and utterly furious. It's hard enough to find a replacement in the UK and most certainly hard enough to find the money!

      Does anyone know where I may be able to pick up a cheap one/cheap shipping to the UK? (In silver)

      I like my car to be in tip-top condition inside and out always, and this is just really grinding my gears!


      Cheers guys.

      Have you tried calling a wrecking yard / auto recycler? Typically they have access to a computer network and can find out if there are any junked cars available in the country that can offer up a used mirror. Going used may save you a few $ / pounds.
