350z mirrors are slightly different size too and the covers will not fit.

Yeah, they'd be a tad small, but they would look great if they were a little longer!

I dont think they are real CF.. I ve made the mimstake of buying "CF like " mirrors and when they came it was not a real CF weave.. just a print...Sold them same day..

and since your question has been answered about fitting i wont chime in on that LOL..

Mark, we need to get together for a last time b4 i sell the car..

Dont buy those mirrors. They look great for about a month then they start peeling and look like any other cheap mirror. if youre gonna paint them maybe but def would look like crap in imitation cf. I speak from personal experience here

I dont think they match the car. A full size sedan with tiny mirrors will look kinda funny.
