Carbon Fiber Mirror Caps on Black E92

Been considering swapping out the stock mirror caps on my black E92 LCI for Carbon Fiber ones (like the BMW OEM ones @ http://www.shopbmwusa.com/PRODUCT/35...MIRROR-CAP-SET).

I assume this comes standard on the black 335is, but I haven't really found any pictures (except http://parts.bmwofsouthatlanta.com/i...107N_14354.jpg) that show off those caps on the car without looking just as black as the car.

So I'm having a hard time picturing if those would even look good on a black car - do any of you have that kind of set-up and photos that show it, and how do you feel about it?

CF + Black is like ... Ice cream with a cherry. It just goes together so well, IMHO.
