Default Carbon Look mirrors with integrated LED

I saw these on flea bay and was curious if anyone has them? Price is right but they may look cheap at that price point.

Obviously fake but IMO the biggest problem with these cheapo mirrors are the constant vibration & adjustment needed! They are just to flimsy & you get what you pay for!

I got the non carbon look ones to replace the mirrors on my TLR. They are CHEAP crap. They don't fit well, they look cheap, they scratch VERY easily and they vibrate like hell at anything over 80Km/h making then absolutely useless.

I tried to give them away and none of my motorcycle friends wanted them so I posted them on craigslist for free and it took over a week to get rid of them.

You could not pay me to go to the trouble to put these on a bike again because all you will be doing when you get back is to put the stock ones on again.

Oh I also tried them on my S1000RR just to see what the signal in would look like and they attach at an un-usable angle.

Thanks for the reply guys! I'm going to pass on them as well. I really like the integrated turn signals on the mirrors and I'm not seeing any others out there. Oh well
