Anyone ever get those spoon style mirrors, carbon fiber or not either one. Was wondering if the quality was ok.

I got these way back when. I will tell you this. I learned my lesson buying "style" parts. They are often not worth the money. The carbon weave was great on my particular set. But I think I could have seen better looking into a piece of tin foil. The mirrors didnt fit the housing and the glass itself was all wavy. Like I said this was way back so they could have updated the design but remember, you get what you pay for.

i actually ordered a set for my friend (he didn't have a credit card at the time), and he likes them. the clear coat on them still holds up, unlike his carbon fiber spoon wing (it's peeling bad). he had them for about 2 years and no fading or oxidation at all.

you'll get used to the visibility over time, other than that they're good for the price, mine still hold up fine after 3 years

LOL...because $300 is outrageous for some little black mirrors with minimal visibility. I love my $70 jdmshit knockoffs.

Heck...I barely pay $300 for my Rota wheels.

if you drive that dc in your avatar, or a dc, don't change the mirrors. The factory ones, especially the second version factory mirrors look great, are functional, and won't get stolen. They stole my mirrors and duckbill when I had an eg. Plain gay man.

the mirrors i got from ebay is the best ive seen, because if you look at jdmshit mirrors you notice the passenger side the piece in the front is double the size than on the driver side. the one i have both left and right are thin. and they were only 20 bucks ive seen the real spoons and its as close as you can get.
