they are stick over. These fitment is so tie, we had to use 0.4mm 3M double side tape.

it will be flat with your black part of the mirror. I had the same mirror cover with same 3M tape on a 350Z drove on route 5 to SF at 140 MPH no problem at all.

Don't like it... The whole point in adding carbon fibre parts is to reduce the weight

I say learn from the best, enzo, z06 have body parts made from carbon fibre yet they are painted.

wow it does look pretty darn good to me. it woulda been better if they were replacements though since these just add weight. negligable i know, but its the principle :p:
