DOOR MIRRORS Cover removals

Post by SYNCRO »

Had a bit of a todo today

Washing the Rocco today noticed the Drivers side wing mirror had a big paint chip out of it by the edge where it folds back. Must have been hit by a stone or something coming back from Dubfreeze

It's too big to simply spot paint it with a paint pen. Is it possible to take the cover off the unit or will I have to remove the whole unit to respray it??

Dont want to spray it whilst on the car.

You will have to remove the whole unit, the shell doesn't come off.
