Function is there, no question. I am happy with my purchase.

They look quite good from a few feet away, and the CF is clean. But go in for a closer look, and I feel like there are a number of things done poorly. The mirrors are very light due to the lack of electronics for adjustments, but they still feel like a pair of extremely cheap sunglasses; the base feels much sturdier due to the weight of the metal construction, but the finish and fitment are quite poor. Even the cut edge on the front of the mirrors isn't clean. Had I purchased these with different expectations at full price for a showroom car, I would have felt like I got ripped off.
