Autotecknic G05 Carbon mirror covers - in Stock
They have them. They aren't being advertised yet.... but they have them.
I've been communicating with them for a couple months now on FB.... waiting. Last night I sent them a "Hey... WTH??" message and they told me they have some in stock. They sent me a Paypal invoice... I paid them immediately, they are on the way. $295.00 (normal price) -$44.25 (black Friday discount) $20.00 (Shipping) $270.75 (total paid) I can't confirm the "quality" of Autotecknic, because I've never owned anything made by them..... but I've heard it was quite good. Can't argue with the price compared to $700+ for MPerformance. Will be added to my incredible "pile" of parts.... waiting for this thing to arrive

Did you get them in yet? Thoughts on the quality? Also I hear the same mirror caps from last ten would also fit is that true? Cause I like the M version with the flare.

The quality appears very good. I cannot comment on the fitment yet, because my car isn't set to arrive for another week or so.
I was speaking with Autotechnik for months before these mirror caps were released, and according to them, the previous generation mirror caps will NOT fit.

I have done most of the test fitting for AutoTecknic. F15/F16/F85/F86 clip positions are different. But, if you also change the outer ring, it will fit. I believe that what dubsesd used. While my customer with X7, uses F97 X3M mirror cover and outer ring. (Picture attached). The mirror cover on F97/F98 X3M/X4M have curves unlike the F85/F86 X5M/X6M. I believe the upcoming F95/F96 X5M/X6M will be using the same one as F87/F98 X3M/X4M.

I do like how that company offers an alternative to the MPerformance Carbon bumper inlets. If those are legit CF, I may order a set myself. This company also doesn't have OEM looking rear CF wings. They only have the front. Same with Autotechnik. I told them I'll buy all 4 as soon as they have the rears developed.... nothing yet though. Report back when you get that JHParts product in. I'd like to hear how the quality is.

I always get OEM for this reason. Covered with factory warranty. That is terrible! The cheap Chinese stuff is way worse! I have wasted hundreds on AliExpress because they get here ( usually CF that MP does not have) but the quality is very low…

With this car, I "thought" I was getting OEM quality carbon fiber for $350. I mean, if an OEM BMW set costs $750 (they are always over-priced for OEM), and a cheap Chinese set is $100..... I figured I'd get OEM quality from an aftermarket company for about $350.... that made sense to me. I was wrong. I got the exact same quality as Chinese junk that costs $100. My argument, is that if I'm going to replace them every year, I might as well have bought Chinese junk.
