thanks mike, i was just going off what the guy who was mounting them for me was saying.
wasn't really paying attention.
i won't be back home for another two weeks to see how everything turns out.
thats the pain with buying things and trying to coordinate with people back to home get them installed.
oh well such is life.

thanks again man ill let that guy know he's doing it wrong. lol

Looks really good but does it also cover the other side where it is facing towards the door. Like flat part to the left of the pictures.

I also see "bare" carbon fiber above the blinker...was that part not clear bra'd? Or did you apply this cover over an existing CF wrap? I did a "5D" gloss carbon wrap on the post and plastidipped my mirror caps. Been debating if I should get these awesome covers (they look gooood) or just go cheap and wrap them too.

Carbon fiber seems to be the new fart-can and wing mod on a civic. Putting one carbon fiber item on the car will make it look tacky. Just my crap opinion.

Seeing as i have multiple carbon fiber pieces on my car, I think it goes well with the rest. Appreciate your opinion though.

Those pis are without clear bra yet. My mirrors were previously wrapped in 3M CF and yes there are slight areas where 3M CF is exposed. I really like the covers, also really liked my 3M until these mirror covers came out.
