I was scared too, but....
Just nut up, and.... PULL. If I get home before koxal puts photos up, then I'll put some up as well, I have mine lying around in my garage. BTW, want to sell your OE's to me koxal? I'm looking for jet black mirror caps, wanna take off my CF ones.  |

Nope everything is perfect...I just popped them off to practice and put em right back...I am going to have them painted Jet Black when I am in Greece so they are done when I get back and I don't have to drive with plastic bags over my mirrors lmao
