Carbon wing mirrors?

Chris H · 11-19-2012, 07:29 AM

Seeing as someone has very kindly clipped one of my wing mirrors I thought I'd see what alternatives are out there, other than £300+ for the BMW Performance ones

Can anyone tell me if these are direct replacements for the painted part of the wing mirror or just stick on covers?

If they are direct replacement parts what is the fit and finish like?

hey mate! they are covers which stick onto your originals!!

got mine from teddy at SSDD

Thanks for that, I've got a crack in the painted part so really want to replace it rather than just cover it.

Is there anyone that does a cf version?

Yeah, Bmw performance and Hartage does them but uf all else fails then you can eBay and get them repainted..much cheaper

What about wrapping them in cf vinyl wrap? Cheaper!

OP said they're cracked, so wrapping with film wouldn't really work would it..?

these are stick over covers, i bought some from ebay and they are superb. i have a pair of m sport mirrors electric heated for £150 if you are interested.

Do the stick on covers sit proud of the mirror or still pretty much inline?

they fit very well as they are paper thin, i siliconed mine on and unless you look very close you wouldnt tell the difference
