The carbon over ABS was reviewed by Pantagathus here and he documented some slight fitment issues although he spoke version highly of their other carbon accessories. It was in this thread that it was mentioned that XXII would be making a 100% carbon version which caused me to research it. It wasn't listed (or I didn't see it) on their site so I reached out to them directly. Per that conversation #3 above is 100% pre-preg carbon.

If they don't fit for whatever reason then they'll be sent back.

I asked him which version he got in the video comments and he responded back it was the full carbon set.

At 12 minutes into the video you can see the inside of the mirror cap and it’s ABS. If it was full carbon you’d see carbon on the back side like this:

You're right, it's definitely the ABS version. I was curious which version he got which is why I asked in the video comments. I suppose it's possible he doesn't know what he's got. My full carbon set are supposed to ship out this week.
It also looks like the full carbon price on their site has gone up to $691.

Here's a thread with comments and photos outlining the fitment of the ABS version. https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...highlight=caps

Just a few comments regarding installation for everyone, you do NOT need to remove the mirror and risk breaking the glass. If you tilt the mirror down and right and down in left and use two flat screwdrivers you can easily pop out the OEM cover in about 2 mins. Having someone hold a flashlight so you can see what your doing is a huge help. Once you pop off the OEM cover, use a T10 to unscrew the two screws holding back the led light, no need to disconnect wires either. Simply reinstall and your good to go in about 15 mins total.

You look into the fin, the M car has a fin on the car vs the M style for G20 has everything on the mirror cover. So if its for M car, the fin should be open up and ready to hook on to the car.

I will throw my two cents in here…I ordered the carbon mirror caps from Kies. The quality of the carbon was excellent, looked OEM. The passenger mirror cap fit perfect. The driver side mirror cap didn’t fit completely tight and so there was a very annoying whistle when driving. Had it on and off multiple times to get a better fit, but wasn’t happening. Just a few mm off. Ended up putting the OEM black caps back on.

I ordered a handful of Saibang Chinese carbon parts including...
From everyone else's reports, their stuff is pretty legit. I have also been chatting with their sales rep Cloris and she has shared that they have taken all of the feedback from their customers and made tweaks to their designs to improve fitment even further. We will see in a couple of weeks when it arrives how it looks/fits.
