Carbon Fiber Mirror "new Style"

Does anyone have pictures of the "new style" LED mirrors in carbon fiber on their car? Has anyone purchased a set like these:

I don't have carbon ones but I do have something similar on my car paint matched.

They are pretty nice.

Not just you. It's like this because it isn't a full carbon replacement, or even a full overlay. It is just a cover that has been 3M taped to the front, which is why it doesn't wrap all the way around the edge.

I've seen it in person and it is not as bad as you are describing. There is no 3M tape used and it is finished ok, but I'm sure you would have done a better job. Your other items are amazing.

I didn't mean to imply that it was "bad." It's a cost effective way to cover the mirror, as doing them in full carbon all the way around is expensive and time consuming. Just stating why it has the black edge.
