Monday morning and the wing mirrors have been nicked :evil: ! Apart from garaging anyone got any suggestions on how to keep them safe (do Audi do mugello blue aluminium?). Also where is the best place to pick up a pair of RS6 folding wing mirrors ?

Thanks for your help.

I've seen people who engraved their license plate on them.

New ones are very expensive :(

it might be worth getting them the same colour as your instead of the aluminium ones, even the dealers near me if they have a rs6 for sale take the aluminium ones off until sold.

Thanks for the input. Having spoken to the Audi garage they recommended getting standard wing mirrors in mugello blue. They have seen a number of RS6 cars without wing mirrors and thieves returning two weeks later to pinch the new ones. If I take this route I will de-badge the car to make it more discrete.

Do you think having standard wing mirrors devalues the car?

of course. but it seems like a sensible solution.

even better, get a set of ali mirrors and paint them blue. after all, that is what audi do with the hood and wings...

Weird that folks would want the mirrors. In the US they want B5 S4 headlights. In NJ, they just take the whole car for a joyride. In London, they want mirrors. What is this world coming to.
