Default carbon fiber mirrors
i was at apr today picking up my strut brace when proposed a strange question...'can you hang out for a few minutes so we can test fit something...." i said of course. they brought out some beautiful carbon covers that slip over your existing mirror, they snap on and include a new mirror lens. the lens is like one of the gtp mirros with the blue anti-glare tint and they are wide angle....just thought id let all you carbon ****** know there is something else coming....ill post pics once they email them to me

When I first saw Steve's (bBist) set at exposed, he told me that APR did it for him as a one-off. Man, I wanted thenm sooo bad. Then I picked up some F1 style cf mirors, make my own mounting plate out of ABS, and out them on the xB.

Now that its raining, I put the OEM ones back on, of course now w/ mirror covers and side markers.
