That's right, but I'm buying it from the classifieds section here and it lives 1,500 miles from me, so I haven't had a really close look at the fit of the mirror caps. From the pictures I've seen they look pretty nice though.

I assume u're asking about the stick on caps, since the full replacements are only available non-OEM for the e92. I've heard the fitment is good since the stick on caps are thin, but if you're a detail-oriented person and walk close to it, you will recognize the gap. Gaps = not cool. Time for autotecknic to start making full replacements for E90's!

agreed. $500+ for an OEM set is ridiculous.
