Nope it is not :lol: :lol:
Mine's a Genesis and all the Genesis type I (is non G40) didn't have color coded mirrors :cry: Only the Genesis II (or Genesis G40) did have color coded mirrors. at least thats what Volkswagen decided for us overhere.
Well actually the Dutch Genesis type I is not more than a basic mk3 polo with a 5 speed gearbox and Genesis badges.

I wouldnt touch my engine with a barge pole were it not necessary.. gonna need extra thick marigolds to clean it off :)

How would one go about painting those teflon coated mirrors then?

Not many MK3s IIRC.

However the MK2 Polo Parade came with colour coded mirrors, and these are pretty much the same :)
