Question about BlueGT gloss mirror caps

Post by DKPOLOGT »

Can anyone (100% sure) tell me if the BlueGT mirror caps are gloss ABS plastic, or painted plastic.

I ask becuse they scratch quite easy, and in a way that painted surfaces usually dont.

I'm quite sure they are plastic, but VW (As usual) are'nt able to confirm.

Cheers.

Hi,

I'm pretty sure that they are painted plastic. I had to order a new casing from VW and I was quoted £120!! I thought this was outrageous as all I'm playing for is a bit of plastic, but the guy said that it needed to be painted. In the end I ended up getting one myself and painting it myself!

I just checked ETKA and the mirror caps are not found in gloss black. They have to be painted.
