    Groupbuy Carbon Mirror Covers

    Hereby I would like to see if there is any interest for an group buy for "Full Carbon" mirror covers for the DS3

    These mirror covers are completely made out of Carbon and manufactured by "Streamline Carbon" in the UK.

    Streamline Carbon now has a broad experience in the manufacturing of carbon parts for the automotive branch.
    Here you can think about mirror covers, but also complete doors, hoods, car roofs, etc.

    To get an impression of their products you can visit their website: http://www.streamlinecarbon.com
    As you can see they make very high quality products and everything is made in-house in the UK.

    About the mirror covers.
    As mentioned, these covers are "Full Carbon" mirror covers (no wrap or similar) which will need to be bonded instead of screwed as the original mirror.
    The shape will be exactly the same and thus there will be no difference in looks.
    The finish is the same as the rest of their products, so as pictured on their website.

    Streamline Carbon has started with the manufacturing of the first mirror covers and therefore I’m looking for interested people to also buy the mirror covers and get a good price for this product.

    The price will be about £130 / 162,50 euro. (This price will be including postage to your Home address)



    If there are any questions, ask them here. Then I will answer them and where needed send them to "Streamline Carbon"

          Some Information about the price

          The price includes vat (we are a registered legitimate company)
          Further, the mirror covers are lacquered and hand flatted and polished.
          The covers are produced using pre-preg epoxy materials and cured in the latest autoclave technology.

          Our products are not to be confused with imitation carbon fibre, wet lay (with fibreglass on the back) and offer a genuine factory fit with 12 month warranty.

          It might be the price can come down once we make them, but we have tooling costs to recoup and until we have made the first component our labour time is unconfirmed.

            Is it just me? I think carbon fibre is a fashion statement and has snob value rather than being a good looking product.
            I wouldn't personally have these for more than the cost of, say, chrome ones which I think look better.
            There - I've said it now. The emperor is not wearing any clothes!
