Why don't you just get your existing ones wrapped ??

Advised not to...
And I don't want to paint them as I'd like to be able to take it back to alu if needed (or at least give next buyer option)

Wrapping doesn't involve paint, plus it's easy to remove if/when needed.

Had mine wrapped too - looks good and much cheaper than the £3600 carbon option !

No that is a left one. Right one is 528.

That number is definitely for a left hand wing mirror cover. Not sure if that is with or without lane assist or colour. I can't see black listed on the parts website.


Note that part numbers begin with 4G0 not 4GO.
Also, I don't think there is any difference with the pre and post facelift wing mirror covers.

Thanks Mike.
I checked the part and it say A6 2012 onwards upto S6 but no mention of RS6.

Also seen a couple of carbon skinned options from uk.

I'd rather be wrapped but to be clear pW pro advised not to and it would be better to paint or replace covers. Assuming you would see some joins hence their guidance

On the C7 there is no difference between A6, S6 and RS6 mirrors.
You can buy them from Audi primed and get them punted any colour you want. Personally, I'd go on eBay and buy any old A6 covers and spray them.

I got mine carbon dipped. I have tested them to 160mph and they are fine! The weave looks very similar to the OEM carbon elsewhere i have on the exterior - really happy with them.
