Gloss Black mirror covers
Gloss Black mirror covers
Fitted gloss black covers to my Misano RS4 today. Not 100% sure of them as they are so different to the silver ones.
Now undecided about painting the wheels black instead of titanium. If I did should I go gloss to match the mirrors or as some say on the forum go matt or satin? Also undecided if I should paint all the wheel black or not paint the silver rim around the edge.

Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
Looks good. I think you need to go gloss black on the whole wheel, and loose the chrome rings

Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
Leave the wheels!
Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
Is that because you don't like black wheels or you don't think it will suit this car?

Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
Both. They are very expensively finished wheels. Don't ruin them or your car. Keep the OEM look

Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
Looks awesome!!!
Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
Only thing I don't like is the shiny gloss mirror attached to a piece of dull matt plastic. Do the factory supplied cars have this gloss as well?
Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
Not sure!

Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
Black mirrors look stunning,
I would leave the wheels in my opinion, I gloss blacked them on my SQ5 , got fed up with them quickly after a couple of stone chips you could see the alloy, they looked stunning for a few months
I ended up getting a full refurb in Anthracite metallic. that looked good
love the mirrors

Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
I like them, don't do the wheels gloss black though!
Maybe you could pick up a used set in need of a refurb and try them in satin anthracite or similar as those rotors look to good to paint.

Re: Gloss Black mirror covers
I've got a spare brand new set that I bought off an owner who changed his wheels on his RS5 at delivery but as they retail for over £4k I'm a bit loath to paint them. Decisions!! Riv your car does look good with black wheels and mirrors but is that because the colour of your car suits the black bits?
