I have a hard time understanding why items from japan are so over priced. There's a difference between expensive and over price I feel anything out right now from Japan is overpriced. Maybe if it was the whole replacement I could understand but not a cover

I totally agree. Way over priced for covers.

It's a pretty simple upgrade, yet it makes the car stand out during the day. Installation is straightforward, OEM grade adhesive tape and the piece fits on like a glove. Took me a few minutes to install and definitely makes the IS look different.

It looks great on a dark color IS and stands out even more on a white or silver IS I figure.

Snapped a few photos to share with 3rd gen IS owners and the CL community



Any constructive comments and thoughts are welcomed. I figure it may not be a must-have upgrade for everyone but I personally like it alot

Thanks!
Sweet! Looks pretty good on the nebula gray pearl which I have as well with the same interior. Sent email now inquiring about the carbon fiber exterior mirror cover and exterior mirror puddle LEDs.

Yes, it's an expensive piece but fitment and quality is guaranteed.

A full replacement is available from another company, but it will come with a hefty price tag because it is a full mirror unit replacement that requires dismantling the factory mirror.

Yes, the carbon fiber stands on even on the nebula grey/dark grey metallic color

It is actual carbon fiber material, with fitment, quality and precision in mind.
