Carbon fiber side mirror covers

Anyone bought and installed these on your side mirrors? How do they look?

It says hand laid CF. No instructions or recommended adhesives.

Well, the guy has a fabulous feedback ranking, but $115? Eh, doesn't sound right. But, i won't judge. I'll let someone purchase first then come back with some feedback. Good price tho.

They are carbon fiber, I have a set. They come with 3m double sided tape and they press on.. pics coming this week after I can get the outer edge wrapped black...

It works for my taste.

So you need blk mirrors to me to make them look right or a dark car. I sanded mine down w 400 grit, primed and used the Eastwood/Spraymaxx 2k Satin paint with 2 parts includes hardner its finish is as good as spray gun really impressed for a radle can.. The paint is durable and chemical resistant now.

Now decision time. To add or not to add.

I would like real mirrors but that be expensive but I have contacted a few companies to see what it would cost.. just waiting to hear back.

Can you add a few pictures of the back side. Wondering what it looks like at the neck of the mirror as I 'm sure the carbon fiber cover doesn't conform around it. Thanks. BTW,is it a Pain to remove the mirrors when you painted them. The covers do look sweet. Maybe an alternative to painting would be applying vinyl in the areas that the carbon doesn't cover
