Anyone else got a carbon fibre addiction........

I don't know what it is about the stuff but I've got loads on my 911, I stumbled across some mirror covers on the bay of E a few weeks ago after a few beverages and transfered my obsession to the range rover.

Long story short, the day after they were cheap so I scoured the ad again for the carbon fibre 'LIKE' and 'EFFECT' statments but couldn't find any.

Fast forward a coupe of weeks and they turned up today and to my amazement they look like OEM or if not OEM quality mirror covers that have been skinned with real carbon fibre which is what most OEM stuff is anyway these days. All the clips/lugs/prongs are there just like factory and not stuck on with double sided tape.

Perfect fit and look the part.

Theres 2 sets left according to the ad.

The exact same ad is showing at a significantly different price. Is one of the ads a scam?

All I know is the cheaper ones are on my car so can't be much of a scam, I'll get some pictures tomorrow in the daylight.

Alistair that bonnet vent just isn't my cup of tea, I'll leave it for the footballers.

As for the more expensive ones, just proves I'm still a diligent tight arse Yorkshireman even after a few beers Rolling with laughter Current
