Finally got around to putting these on. They are genuine audi parts so no issues. In fact a little worrying that only 2 small screws that you can easily get at are all thats holding them apart from a few tabs. Anyway rubbish pics but very happy.

Looks sweet mate great job so these MTM ? Or Audi parts looks great anyways get some more pics once the rest of the bits are on.

Cheers buddy, MTM take genuine A6 covers, carbon vacuum them and then laquer. Prob the best way to produce them with quality and guaranteed fitment...grille next. Too late to start removing the bumper as I need to use the car in the morning!

Nice!

Very nice. Neidfaktor do something similar also available in a satin finish too

Nearly as nice as the genuine ones from Audi.

Look good.

Thanks, but gotta say if you have seen them side by side as I have today you wouldn't know which is which.

Probably a shed load cheaper too!

The carbon wing mirrors look fantastic against the dark paint.

Thanks,
Managed to get the lower carbon lip as well. Was meant to be booked in this week to have it fitted and the black optics done but been too busy with work..... Really looking forward to it.

nice, cant beat carbon

They look stunning. Look forward to seeing the rest of the carbon goodies and the black optics.

I have just got myself a pair of these and they look awesome. Do you have any tips on fitting?

I got the audi instructions from mtm but pretty useless. And in German.

First job is to pull off the glass,use a suction cup. But be very very careful here as the auto dim wires are soldered onto the back and could be ripped off as I did!!!

You then only need to remove the 2 small screws you will see going into the mirror cover.

The black plastic trim on the underside is all that's stopping the cover pulling upwards now so use a plastic trim tool to release the clips and that's you. This is the most tricky part. I couldn't figure out how to get this trim part completely off but managed ok and no clips or tabs got damaged.

If you get stuck let me know and I can take a few pics.

Very helpful thank you. I'm on Amazon now buying a suction cup!
Will finish the car off nicely, looks silly IMO with carbon everywhere else and silver mirrors!
Will let you know how it goes.

Thx again
