Talking Beer fixes everything!

Put the mirrors on without a drama, very very easy. Just pop off, hoping some bloke doesn't come along and rip them off

Nice one! Did you use that "hook" tool that everyone goes on about?

Looks great Kris. I suppose no need for the hook tool?

Any plans for the cf spoiler?

Hook tool is rubbish! Just a flat head screw driver, Push mirror down so it exposes the top, cover your screwdriver with a towel, budge the mirror out (extremely easy)

Then work out the clips for the cover from the mirror side... Do reverse to install

No CF spoiler for me, but ill do the diffuser...

The hook is a red herring - happy to do this mod for anyone who feels they are not capable! Just provide said ale

Cheers Joe, gotta see it in the daylight first to really determine if I like it! But it looks good... i think!

Its fun isn't it Mate, the engines are bulletproof. Just ensure they are fully warmed up by making sure your oil is at 90degrees. Takes a good 15-20minutes.... I always let it cool down too, same thing I did on my S3 (turbo)
