FULL Carbon Fiber Mirror Cap Replacements....

iCARBON DESIGN · 06-03-2010, 12:24 AM

Hey guys and gals!

We wanted to do a bit of a feeler to gauge interest in making full carbon fiber mirror cap replacements for either the pre 2010 mirrors and/or the post 2010 mirrors (depending on interest).

We have the technology to do this, it's just a matter of having enough interest to put these into production

So let's set the scenario: How many people are interested in Carbon Fiber mirror caps that are full replacements of the OEM ones, with full clips and everything if pricing was say... somewhere between $275-$325 (for both).

Please vote on the polll if you'd be interested, and if you are pre 2010 or 2010 and on.

- The iCarbon Team

Yes, there are zero CF mirror anything for the newly styled 2010+ mirrors. Its almost like a lot of companies haven't realized the mirror design changed.

onefastman · 06-03-2010, 09:38 PM

Do it on the older ones!

mineo77 · 06-03-2010, 09:40 PM

i'm in 100%...either way ya'll go!

AchtungF80 · 06-04-2010, 08:37 AM

can't believe i'm saying this but I want in on pre-2010 covers...the caps aren't doing it for me hence why I haven't installed mine.

Chris@iCARBON · 06-08-2010, 11:24 PM

bump!

escobar929 · 06-09-2010, 07:05 AM

ive never liked covers, caps are a great idea. specially if the pricing is competitive w/ the BMWP ones, which it def seems to be

onefastman · 06-09-2010, 07:32 AM

+1!

Dangerlucas · 06-09-2010, 01:02 PM

Well I voted yes, but I'd only buy them if I were able to get some sort of deal because I purchased the overlays. Maybe an exchange? I actually haven't even installed the overlays yet (been super lazy about it for some reason), so if you are going to do this let me know if we can work something out and I'll keep them off the car for now.

AchtungF80 · 06-09-2010, 02:01 PM

Agreed, my overlays don't fit properly so I kept them off the car.

Bah, I thought these fit fine. Now I have another reason not to install them.

Update? Do you think an exchange would be possible? If not please let me know and I'll try to install the overlays I have now.

Lucas, I'm sure we can figure something out for you. Send me an email!

We're about a good 6-8 weeks from having these in stock and ready to ship! We'll update with pictures when the prototype is done and test fitted
