Cleaned up the car today and attempted install of the Autotecknic mirror caps and side vent trim.

Mirror caps 👍
Side vent trim (boomerangs) 👎

I would definitely NOT recommend the side vent trim. It’s a stick on so it just covers the existing trim. It did not fit well and when test fitting before sticking. They came ready with 3m tape. I tried anyways and it would not stick and could not get it to sit flush.

I ended up scratching up my oem boomerang trim piece in the process. I though maybe it was the 3m tape that came pre installed so I removed it and added my own (same that’s I just used last weekend on my front lip). Still a no go. I think the biggest issue is that it doesn’t sit flush so you can’t get it to stick.

Didn’t even attempt the other side. Going to contact Autotecknic about this.

Autotecknic mirror caps fit great no problems there. Five minutes to install those. By the time I got done messing with the boomerang it was dark so I’ll have to get a photo later.

Anyways, would not recommend trying the boomerang overlays. Not worth it imo.
