its the same colour as Miles' (aka E34M5) current car.

i need to get some mirrors, and a guy is selling some on ebay, but i need to know if the colour is correct (lachs silver).
i think mine is metallic something
im offshore at the moment, so cant check for myself.

id like a pair of the standard mirrors, preferably in the same colour.
its actually the base plate that the mirrors attach to, but ill take the whole mirror assembly if need be.
the paint on mine has started to flake, and is bubbling in places.

dont want to have to muck about spraying, or getting them sprayed when i might find some used parts in the right colour.

do you know of anyone that has a set?

What have you got on the car at the moment then ?....There are normally a few people breaking E34's on Ebay and selling the bits off, i'll have a look to see if there any Sterling Silver ones for you.

i have the standard mirrors and backing plates on it just now and would like to replace them as they are looking a bit tatty.
bubbles in the paint and what not.

ill have a look on ebay also, but so far have only found that bloke with the lachs silver one.

also wouldnt mind getting hold of a new boot lid, as there is a dent in mine.

and need new bonnet lifters, as the ones i have dont hold the bonnet open on their own.
and need a windscreen washer pump.
also need kickpanels, as the guy that had it before me cut into them to fit speakers.
the list goes on.........
