I like the overall quality and looks of it. The color matches pretty well. You can't tell a difference unless you're staring at it from close. Installation takes about 1-2 hours. I can write up a little guide too if you guys want. Here are some pics.
You definitely have cleared my doubts on these, I'm going to order a set for sure now- the only thing is I can't quite get around the color of the led's inside- its too bright of an orange, Nice job though! I'd be kind of screwed though since my car is a rare blue so i'd have to get them unpainted or CF from ForMyMercedes- but then I would want the rest of the mirror housing to be CF just like on the infamous TTMotorsports Red CLK BS

If i'm not mistaken the wheels are from Modulare and they are the M9's, they produce some very nice wheels for coming from a town right outside of Dallas- not as big as HRE or ADV.1 but still produce some quality work!

Just installed carbon fiber mirrors, looks good but i have some strange problem, maybe someone could help.
They slightly blink every 5 seconds when the car is off and when the car is on the light are also always on, no idea what it could be. Same as on this video

Hi Dimitri,

I have the exactly the same issue as you. I took my car to Mercedes Leadership and they said that the problem is down to the unit itself. the LED unit in these aftermarket seem to be too weak compare to the Original LED indicator unit that is why It stay on when its supposed to be off.

I really hope someone have some solutions for this problem because even Mercedes themselves don't even know what to do.

Carbon Fiber one,

The fitment was not the best. they were too tide compare to the OEM wing mirror. they scrape off the black paint on the base housing

Not very happy with the purchase at all
