I have a carbon flash metallic centennial. How do you think they would look? Really want them but hopefully they are darker them my paint.

These look really good on dark colors....so I think it would look great.

You already asked him that in September and he said yes. But why would you go through all that expense just to have what you have now?
The weight savings is probably ounces....

Glad you're keeping track. And I wasn't aware that my side view mirror housings are carbon fiber...oh that's right...THEY'RE NOT!

Those are great looking! That's one of those parts if I bought them would come off my car when sold. Just wish price would come down, but appreciate they are high quality.

They certainly look great. I read on one of the posts that your housings will not swivel. If that is true i'm wondering why you did not make them to swivel like the OEM. Also i think it would be helpful if you put additional pictures showing how they will look on the many red, white and yellow Vettes out there. I'm speaking for myself and possibly others who can't envision just how they would look on their car. Nothing is worse than spending that kind of cash only to realize you don't care for the look.

I certainly love my mirrors. There is another company that makes folding mirrors for 2x the price. I got these because I never had the need to fold my stock mirrors. Here's how it looks on my Inferno Orange GS.
