E90 pre-lci CF mirror cover

Does anyone make carbon fiber side mirror covers replacement for e90 pre-LCI?

I was looking around and couldn't find one. All of them are just CF cover.

Thanks.

No, but I've heard that the E92 mirror covers fit...

They don't look identical but I remember reading on another thread that the E92 covers fit E90 mirrors.

Is the one you offer for e92 LCI? I'm looking for the pre-LCI ones.

Note: I just saw it on your website. They are the ones that glue/tape over the existing covers, not the ones that I like.
I'm looking for the cover replacement.

I have carbon fiber mirror cover replacements (the kind that replace your stock covers, not go on top of them) on my 2007 335xi sedan, which is a pre-lci e90. I purchased them from another member of the forum. I'll ask him where he got them and post the info once I have it. Also included a pic to make sure we're talking about the same thing.

This is exact what I looking for. CF mirror cover "replacement", that will replace the stock covers of e90 pre-LCI.

Thank you so much.

You're correct.

Now I have to find who carries a good quality one. I need a set of those to complete my phase 2.

Yeah, I found out that they were so expensive.

I have to put this project on hold for a while....... a pretty long while.
