atleast this is real carbon I think

I know I am being tough but if you are going to put carbon on your car make it replace the OEM not go ontop of the OEM
i would have went with replacements which were the stage 2... but i dont like the fact its cut off half way.... i know i was gonna get comments about it being retarded adding weight on the car... but the weight added by the carbon mirror side mirror covers is insignificant... they weight about 2 pounds each.... something ill get back somewhere else... plus thats what my bolt ons are for lol

true.... thats why i said it was an accent... i never said it would save me weight and yes cf is meant to save weight the only thing i can think that can save weight is changing the metal fenders to cf... everything else is already paper weight....
