First off....don't laugh!
My PT side mirrors are non folding and they're not black metal like the sides of the car, not quite sure what to call it but I think most of you know the material its made out, like black plastic.
Ok my dilemma is - I park my car at a meeting point, a carpooler's home off a country road. There is a cardinal bird that was there all last summer, the winter and still there. Another girl and I take turns driving to the meeting point. This bird loves to perch on our side mirror and of course make a mess down the side of the car which I clean as soon as I get home. He does both sides of the car. But is little feet is starting to make scratches in the black plastic. If I put chrome covers on there do you think he will just scratch the chrome too? Should I just leave it til its gets bad enough and then put chrome on it? Opinions please!!! Yes I do know its a cardinal because if we have to wait for the van he is so brazen he will sit on the mirror and look into the car at me! LOL He also looks in a window at the house. Anyone know the life span of a cardinal?
