Any C7 owners had PPF on the mirrors? Just had my mirrors repainted and want some protection from stone chips. There doesn't appear to be off-the-shelf templates for the Euro spec mirrors with the integrated indicators? A local company to me said they only use pre-cut templates and the shape of the mirrors were too difficult to do 'freehand'.

Short answer is 'no'.

I have a UK spec C7 and bought a pre cut PPF kit from the USA. Naturally, the mirror part of the kit is for a US car and too small for UK/Euro.

Similarly, they front end pieces did not have a cut out for headlight washer jets - so had to very carefully measure up and then cut it.

Often thought that it may be possible to design own PPF pieces by making a template and experimenting.

Good luck though!
