Black crinkle finish, like the instrument cluster panel, would be correct
for the mirror and stalk, black matte for the bumper holder. You should
have the mirror with just raw glass edges, no rubber trim around the
outside(that came after TS60000).

Subject: Re: [TR] TR2 Mirror
That's too funny - I used a ratchet type screwdriver to remove the one to
check the thread size for john - and tried to put it back.
The rubber buffer was a bit tough to push against - so I just popped the
four Dzus buttons - I also loosened the station screws in the side of the
windscreen - that makes it a bit easier for the stantions to swiing away
from the body to prevent scratching. Get a little help to hold the
windshield - As nice as the paint is on Johns car - I wouldn't do it alone.
My car - well that's no problem :).
Offhand, Does any one know what color the center metal brace should be and
the mirror stalk on a TR2 - I'm presuming some kind of matte black or
crinkle black on the stalk. 30 years ago the DPO (me) was very handy with
brown rattle can spray paint.....
