that is how the oem one looks... ive never liked how the oem looked... half painted only to match the color of the z.... and i dont like the split line... in the beginning i planned on painting the mirror full solid red.... like painting the unpainted part the rest of the color.... so that it would be a full solid color on the mirror no breakage... no lines... but then i wanted to get cf instead... sooo i waited for a full cover that covers the whole mirror with no breakage going from carbon to black plastic again... thats why i like the stage 1... if you want the stage 2 then go for it bro... like i said they weigh close to nothing and thats what my bolt ons are for... it aint like im adding a carbon fiber quarter panel... or a carbon roof top... and its not like every guy i meet is gonna be like you and be like OMG there is a 1/8 gap on the edges.... its f*cking ugly... and what? its a stick on? thats freaking worse.... just saying dood... if your really concerned about the weight i added with the carbon covers then remove ur oem ones and rock the small tiny carbon fiber ones... i dunno what you call them but... im sure they weigh a hell of alot less then our bulky ones...

But I don't care about the weight

It just looks cheap as a stick on.

Lets wait untill some company makes a full CF mirror that includes all the electric moving bits

I would not worry about the weight of these. You will add more weight than two of these things by just putting on boot instead of tennis shoes. Or better yet leaving your cell phone behind or not putting the nissan manual in the glove box would be more weight than these things. Got to be crazy to worry about these adding weight. Maybe you just need to go on a diet, just some food for thought.
