Thanks for the link. The guy also sells sheets of carbon fiber. DIY carbon fiber dog bowl, carbon fiber toilet seat, carbon fiber remote control, carbon fiber watch band, the possibilities are endless...

I will try to shoot some shots tommorow.. I too am still iffie on them, but after getting the car out of the garage, im starting to love em.. Barely noticeable on the black, but dont think theyll look as good on lighter colors, as they will really stand out...

Do we share the same mirror shape in common...I have a CL500? I think they look great!

That was kind of my first reaction. And add to the fact that I've got a silver E55 and they would stand out like a turd in a punch bowl.

May be a good contrast though...:pondering:

The potential buyers of your car will hate me for saying this but those CF covers don't belong anywhere near your car. Sorry lowballers, no more cheapening.

Jrocket Euro impact strips are still free though.

well, I'm kind of mixed... I've got a black car too so maybe it won't stand out much, but I think I'd rather drop the cash on... something else... they do look like good quality though!~

I'm fency too. It may look nice on a black ride. I've wanted to tint that signal, but haven't thought of the mirrors. It is definitely better than the chrome lay overs MB sells.
