lighter than stock - c'mon guys they are mirrors! There are way easier ways to get weight savings

Only other firm that makes a mirror like that is ganador, cheaper at around $550 give or take, but not real cf like the Mine's ones are

Its quite ridiculous selling M3 replicas which cost like 40 bucks on ebay nowadays....but the bump in price is what the CF cost?? yah right.

thats a tall order.

to have any chance they would have to design them to use the stock mirror and powering setup, and figure a way to make them fit in the new design. that way they just need the actual housing. and dont forget the other half as well where it connects. I dont see it getting under 400$ at best, that is atleast 4 seperate peices, none duplicates. gotta be able to sell alot of something to make it cheap, and new mirrors just arent on many peoples to-do lists.
