THE TC CARBON FIBER MIRROR COVERS DO NOT FIT THE xA.

I received the mirror covers on Thursday and sent them back on Friday.

They are about 1/4 inch too small to fit on the xA.

I don't know how the OP got the black covers to fit. I think he removed his white one and put on the black one. The CF covers are supposed to fit OVER the OEM covers, so that may be the difference.

I don't know for sure.

I also have an S2000 and CF mirror covers are available for that, too. I know for sure that the S2000 covers fit OVER the OEM mirrors.

No instructions came with the TC mirror covers. If I have to disassemble the mirrors, remove the OEM shell/cover, and install the CF cover - I didn't do that.

If that's the solution, I'll find out soon. Man, I hope you're right - I really want the CF mirror covers to work.

I took my hands, put near the edges of the top and bottom of the covers, and kinda pinched the part that rounds near the front of the mirror and squeezed, and it just pops off without breaking, just be gentle, but get mad at the same time if you need so it pops loose

I had an '04 that burned up in January.

I found the '06 in San Francisco. 3 miles on the odometer, no dealer prep, all the plastic was still on it.

I sent the mirror covers back the next day after I received them. I haven't heard anything from the company since then. Hopefully, they will come up with a solution, or refund my money.

So far, I think you should keep your stock white ones but post up some more pics at an angle and a full side view with the carbon covers on. Could get a better look at them and the car that way.
