Carbon Mirror Covers
Has anyone dealt with Carbon Factory? Any opinions on quality compared to OEM?
Im looking at these M Performance Style replacement covers for my M340i. https://www.carbonfactory.co.uk/prod...or-covers-2017 |

I bought the carbon mirrors from them a while back. The ones they stock now are ones with a fin, like the m performance style, so I would double check what ones they supply now. The quality of the carbon is good however I returned mine and got a full refund as a mounting point for a screw broke and it didn't fully fit. This could have been a bad batch from the new style supplier so I wouldn't judge them solely on that. The customer service I got was great.

Not bought them yet. But anyone know of any other suppliers that can supply these fin M style carbon mirror but pre-preg carbon?
And also the CS style carbon rear spoiler, again pre-preg rather than vacuum? |

Can't recall any of the websites I checked. I googled 'carbon fibre g20' and I got a few hits, also use that search on Google images for a reference and it will take you to the site.
I have a mix of genuine and aftermarket m performance kit. In the end I went with genuine carbon wing covers from eBay. A genuine bmw seller sold both for £300, its a luck of the straw but try searching on ebay for carbon parts, some decent deals. |

No problem. I can't confirm the quality of carbon factory stuff but I can confirm Autoid's TRE pre-preg being close to as good as BMW's MP carbon.
