Default Issues with Carbon mirrors

Has anyone had any issues with these?

Tried to fit some last night and they dont fit nicely at all, there is no recess on the base of the mirror so they stick out a mile...

anyone else had issues?

Cheers

I brought some for my classic a while back for 200 quid. The fit was pretty shocking to be honest so sent them back.

Got some from roger clarke in the end for just over 300 quid, which may seem expensive but the fit was perfect.

Thats very true, which is one of the reasons mine are coming off and going back to standard.

Plus i get mixed comments on the way they look, i'm still undecided. Bit like marmite.

i loved the look of them, but the fitment was gash to be fair. I could fit my finger behind the mirror

Just like the first ones i got, they didn't fit flush.

I'll try and get some pics up later to show the fitment of the rcm ones.
