Thanks! I think yours look great in gloss black. I am thinking of carbon fiber, since I will be putting several carbon fiber bits on my F30...and was curious how the inside weave of the CF will look. I could always mask the outside of the mirror and paint the inside gloss black. Appreciate the pictures and info!

Im curious as to the wind noise they make. I think they look great and would also be interested in carbon fiber version of these.

I tested them at high speed and couldn't detect any increase in wind noise personally, no difference. My passenger agreed.

that's your car right, the 3-series? I guess that is, as you say, Smoked Topaz looks nice too!!

I did a google image search on the post that i quoted, which looks to be a US spec M3.. and think it might actually be Pyrite Brown

Trying to pick an individual colour for a 4-series GC at the mo
