Through some research on the forum, I believe so, which would explain a lot.

I am disappointed if The Z Store sent you those. They should be buying in bulk to avoid and handle these inconsistencies from EVO-R. It’s one thing to get the clearance rack version of the product shipped from Taiwan (when purchased direct from EVO-R), but to get that from The Z Stores shelves stinks.

My evo-r carbon mirrors looked fine and has held up (F1 style mirrors). Maybe their quality went down or they have someone else working the carbon.

I picked up some mirror covers from EVO-R last year during a sale and I would say that I received an 8/10, if truly judging finish and quality. I have a few wavy fiber areas and had some seethrough pinholes. I chalked it up to being the TJ Maxx/Ross castoffs at a cheaper price.

I have not seen how the Nismo, Seibon, Fujimara finishes looks for comparison, however keep in mind the size of the companies and the price point. In MOST instances, you get what you pay for.

It is unacceptable to send the above product out to a customer.

To say that I am disappointed is an understatement. What I think I'm going to do is just get my money back from these, save up a few bucks and order the ones I really want which you almost never see anywhere... Impul.

No, I don't think these aren't EVO-R carbon fibre covers. I ordered the exact same ones from the Z store. I don't know the manufacturer company name, but it believe it's one of their exclusive Z motorsport suppliers - they were out of stock at the time and I had to wait a month for them to be made and shipped.

That's unfortunate yours came like that. Mine were nowhere near as bad as yours. My weave was pretty good, though I had some scuffs and imperfections in the clear coat. Decided it wasn't worth the hassle to return and reship a new one, so I installed it; it was acceptable enough to me. However, I'm not sure if I didn't install them correctly, or the shape of the cover wasn't a 100% perfect, because mine didn't fit properly. There's slight gaps around the edges. I'm just gonna leave it for now and may get around to try and re-install after winter.

They do look quite nice on the car though :tup:

Yeah, I'm not going to screw around with them, and right now, the Z store is pissing me off because they're not replying to my emails. I sent two now and nothing.

I'm sure as heck NOT going to settle and put these things on my car. No thank you.

It might be worth noting that they could be out for the holiday break. Alot of businesses slow down during this time of year.

Just keep records and contact your credit card company if you don't hear anything back after the weekend.

Decided to paint my Invidia tips black to match my black badges. Got to say, they look awesome!! Once I cure them, they'll be installed.
