Hartge CF Mirror Covers--?

These look awesome but are these really $850!? I'll pass for that price but if they were in the $300 range I might check them out. Anyone have a URL to buy them at?

Japan price is over $1300, I call this rip-off
I would wait for the OEM CF cover , guess should be ~$250-$300

def. not worth the money. but it would be cool to see thise CF mirror with your CF window trim executive. perhaps do a photoshop to see how it would turn out.

maybe in the future it'll be affordable

Very little if any, because plastic is interchangable with carbon fiber for weight loss. The only reason to change from oem plastic to carbon fiber would be for rigidity.

It might nick slightly less but the problem is that it isn't really able to be touched up like paint. There are cf touch up kits but I don't know how great they work.

As for weight saving, it won't save weight.

850 is alot. plus i'm under the impression that they're prone to scratches.
