Default Mirror Covers

Mine are shot. They were on the car when I bought it and they have served a great purpose. The fabric is worn thin. Who else has them ? Where did you buy them ? My car is black and of course I want black fabric covers to replace the old ones.

I bought mine used from a forum member - got a heck of a deal and they really protect the mirrors from bugs/chips. You can try places like Mid-America, Ecklers or if you want some pricey ones, Speed Lingerie.

I have a set but am disappointed with the short life and cost associated with this product. See them advertised on e bay and they are even more expensive then last year...what gives. Very poor value IMHO. In three year could have your mirrors repainted.

You could always get them clear bra'd. I have it on mine and don't have a single chip.
