S3 style silver wing mirror covers

[Tempz]

Hi all,
What would be the best way to get my all black wing mirrors to look like the silver ones on the S3? Are the genuine S3 mirror covers expensive? I'd imagine they are so what do people think about wrapping etc.?

Thanks in advance.

4 options

eBay aftermarket most have more of a matt finish which is different than OEM
breakers yard
buy OEM

Aluminium style wrap as well, i have been quoted £80 for the pair to be wrapped but ideally I would like OEM

What year is your car? The style of wing mirrors changed over the years

2007 - 2008: no indicator slot

2008 - 2009 and 2010-2013: the ends are different - as far as I know, in 2010, the S3 shared A5 mirrors

I'd love OEM but the price would make me wince!

There is some on eBay for the 08-10 A3 - I'm not sure of their quality but the price isn't too bad - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281603329189
