FS: Brabus Carbon Fiber Mirror Covers

Looking to sell my Brabus CF mirror covers that I bought off of phranksmbz in August. Don't think I'll be modding my C as much as I thought I wanted to in the summer. On that note, I'm just looking to get the money back that I paid for it. CAD$220+shipping+Paypal fees. They are pretty small and lightweight, so shipping to anywhere shouldn't cost that much. PM me if you are interested.

I'm amazed no one has jumped on these yet. If I wasn't saving up for a lip and diffuser I'd be all over them!

These are the dry CF ones right, not the glossy ones?

LOL to me, it's somewhere inbetween, but I'd say they are the dry CF ones, not the glossy ones. Still has a sheen to it. It's the ones with the Brabus logo on them.

EDIT: Here is a pic of the mirror covers.

Bump!

I never even put these on my car. They have only been on phranksmbz C class for 3-4 months. Retail on these are USD$345 new according to the email I have from Brabus USA.

That's unfortunate. These are quality pieces and fit perfectly over the top half of the signal lights on the mirrors. You get what you pay for!

I'm not too keen on double sided tape myself, so I've come up with a way to apply items to your car whether it be a spoiler or trim piece like this without leaving any marks on your car and ensure that it will stay on for as long as you want it on there. My method will require a bit more work, but you'll be much more confident in the bond. You'll need some clear paint protectant film like XPEL or Ventureshield (the clear bra material to protect your front end). Any shop that does the clear bra will charge you very little if nothing at all for small pieces or scraps that they have left over from the laser cut sheets. You'll need one or two pieces that will cover the face of the piece you are going to be applying to your car. Trace the shape of the item onto the clear bra material and cut it out with about 0.5 to 1cm inside of the tracing. Make sure the sticky side is down when tracing if you want to protect your car and/or sticky side up if you want to protect the piece you are applying. Once you cut it out, apply it to the part, your car, or both. Small bubbles won't matter as the film will not be seen. Now you'll need some windshield silicone. Depending on the size of your piece, apply the silicone to the face with the clear film and attach it to the car and let it set for a few hours as instructed. If you want to remove it, you'll need some strong floss and floss the silicone in half to remove the piece. Remove the clear film and you'll have no marks or damage to your car and you won't need any special goo remover as the clear film protectant doesn't leave any!

If I get the price I paid for them, I would let them go. I'm in no rush and am not in need of cash right now as I got my yearly bonus and stocks. If you want them, PM me!
