Hoping to pick up Deepseatiger's cast off tomorrow. I have been told that the passenger door mirror has also been resprayed due to the blade coming loose and wacking it. Is this a common problem, is there a known solution? Also I know the wheels are an upgrade but I think the car looks much sexier in total black. How much would a wheel spray cost it would it be cheaper to get a second set of wheels in black for winter / summer?

if you find a good place I'd like to get my sport 160 wheel sprayed matt black. Must be powder coated though as paint is too weak !

Wiper blade issue seems to be a feature with the new blades fitted to 06 and later cars. (At least I had the same thing happen on mine - managed ot catch it before it did any damage). The metal stiffener in the blade works its way up the wiper and then catches the mirrors. I fixed my new blade the other way round, so that the open end is at the bottom. (Need to look at the wiper blade to understand this).

Hope you enjoy the car
