    Hello all,
    Curious if anyone produces actual carbon fiber mirror covers? NOT plastic ones hydro dipped to look like carbon haha. I purchased a new '18 Platinum (white) last year, really dislike the chrome mirror covers that came stock, and would like to put some real carbon ones on it.

    My next thing is IF there is not anyone producing them currently, would there be any interest from any of you if I produced them myself (I own a small cycling company and could get these made without much issue)? What would you consider to be a "fair" price for them...realizing it won't be cheap haha. Lastly, what layup/finish would you all like...UD, 3K, 12K....Gloss or matte?

    Thanks!
    Blake

    Problem is, there is nothing else carbon fiber on the truck. Most people color match. Now if carbon fender flares could be made, that would be cool!

    No benefit to real carbon fibre. A negative is that it can't be recycled or down cycled
