Recent install of Carbon mirror caps

I have read the other threads for carbon mirror caps but it’s fairly old. Has anyone found a good priced product that doesn’t make noise and fits good? I am not interested in paying Oem prices. Thanks!!!

Always OEM for mirror caps. Chinese carbon producers don’t have wind tunnels to test their designs and they don’t care if you have to listen to whistling every time you drive your car more than 40mph. Wait for a deal on OEM if you have to.

No mention of wind noise. I know the Kies Motorsport ones had that issue. I guess I know in a few weeks when they arrive.

These look like and are priced appropriately for the same Dongsai sourced ones everyone sells. They do have wind noise.
