Is it easy to spray a wing mirror yourself ? by jgkgolf@hotmail.com
I lost the back of the drivers wing mirror on my Ford focus (or possibly had it nicked!). I can get the part (£14) but it comes in some neutral colour and will need to be sprayed (spray costs £16). It's a navy blue colour. Is this a fairly easy thing to do myself or will I make a bodge of it and be better off paying a pro the labour cost?

the PIELINE card? by Rob[_7_]
Remember all the promises about the card called PIPELINE? Whatever happened to it? Did anyone get one or was it as other people said "just a pipedream"? The website constantly raised figures it required for signup, when they were met it shot up and kept going up until the site owners could not lie about it any more. What were your details used for and how much do you think they were sold...
