I bought mine from OSIR through the TT shop too (as did RedRobin).

I'd have no chance of getting genuine OSIR silver ones off ebay :cry:

Waiting for the OSIR rear spoiler to turn up now :drool:
Nice one Hurdy!

These are cheaper, but just thin stick on covers  :undecided:

Look OK in the photos though and would give some protection :

Hurdy and Joe have them on. I think RedRobin has them installed too.

Im pretty sure they have the full carbon osir ones as apposed to just carbon covers which is what the ebay link is?

Yeah, true... when u said covers, i thought u meant the mirror housing as opposed to the sticker.

You bet. Most of them end up being false advertising...
