couple Pics Carbon Fiber Mirror Covers

Got these about a month ago, BMW Cabon fiber mirror covers. These are not stick on, replace your stock mirror cover. I feel they fit in well with Sparkling Graphite.

Comments please.

i've been perusing weight reduction options also. aside from giving up burgers for a few months, these might be the ticket.

do you notice any extra power due to the reduced weight?

has your petrol consumption reduced?

whats the weight difference compared to stock?

Meth smoking and lite and easy was my ticket to 40kg weight loss

Do you notice any extra power due to the reduced weight?

Heaps actually struggle to move without wheel spin now. Had a team of engineers write a special letter with certificates I can show the police when I get pulled over.

Has your petrol consumption reduced?

Don't even need to fill up anymore car just runs on zero weight momentum

whats the weight difference compared to stock?

I have actually had to add weights to the car, when I first put them on the car started to float.


did this for looks nothing more.........

Cheers
Joe

Hahahhaha nice responses. Good to see you weren't dismayed by the interrogation

I think your next mod should be to add a light window tint! IMO the caps look a little naked up there without something else keeping it company. but they do look great man.

They must've cost a bomb though... I've dealt with the stick on covers and they do OK on dark colour cars but on a white or silver car forget it as there will always be a 1-2mm gap somewhere.

Black vinyl the window trim and black powder coat the wheels...That's all for visual mods imo then just concentrate on performance!


Didnt Alex (lotus evora guy) on the weekend say he had some black vinyl already cut for you for the trim? I can get it off him for you and give it to you next time we meet (which looks like we will be having another cruise for Easter 6/4). Or if you cant wait that long we can pick it up this weekend.....
