Anyone buy these carbon mirror covers?

If so. How do they fit? Are the corners lined up?

My X has a set on it, was on there from the PO. The quality is great and the fitment is pretty good too. I wish I could offer some more help. I love the look though. Goes perfectly with the BMW OEM Performance CF front lip.

Had mine for more than a year on my M. Fit is OK but not perfect. I have to put tape around my side mirror to hide a few mm from the sides as the CF doesn't cover it 100%. I didn't want the hassle of returning it plus I like the look so I decided to leave it.

I'll def replace it if I can find one that is a replacement (rather than a cap that is taped) on top of the mirrors.

Bump to see how these are holding up for people. I figured as long as the mirror is cleaned with alcohol and the 3M gray/red back outdoor adhesive is used, they should stay on but I'm curious about fading in the sun since this thread is a few years old now.
