Good evening,
I am looking for a 'reasonably priced' set of carbon mirror caps for my 2016 Polaris White V6 Coupe.
I've managed to source a set of OEM wing and bonnet vents at a very decent price but struggling with the mirror caps if anyone has them gathering dust
Many thanks in advance

Echo the above for my car! I think they’re like hens teeth now.
Can anyone comment on quality, looks on the cheap over-fit versions?

Yip none to be found, I've been looking for months, did see a couple of pairs for sale but they want big money for them. A guy on Facebook market place has a pair at £575 if moneys no object.. I think you can still buy the drivers side from jaguar, but it's the passengers side that's discontinued.
I have a spare set of black mirror caps, that I'm going to get hydro dipped I think, seen some that have been done and they look nice.

Yes, I agree Hydro dipping is a great solution. Does it matter what colour donor caps are to be used?

I don't think it matters, to be honest, I think the have to prep and coat them before dipping.

Just pricing up the dipping solution, will post here once I get a quote.
Also looking at the chinese over fit covers that are less than £100 for the pair which is cheap if they look good.
As per @Cotswold Polaris - interested if anyone has fitted these and their opinion, photos...
Cheers

I think the Chinese ones sit over the OEM ones so sit a bit higher than stock, another option is koshi carbon fiber, These replace the OEM ones but they clip and are bonded in as well.

These look interesting. When you say they are bonded does that mean that they are stuck to the existing mirror cap?gazzaaitken wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2024 10:59 pm I think the Chinese ones sit over the OEM ones so sit a bit higher than stock, another option is koshi carbon fiber, These replace the OEM ones but they clip and are bonded in as well.
