Smile Black F-Sport Side Mirror Caps on a non f-sport

I tried searching through the threads and didn't see this topic mentioned. Has any ordered the black f-sport mirror caps for a non f-sport model? I'm getting a white RX450h and want to swap the standard white mirror caps for black ones.

Thanks

See if your dealer's parts department will order for you.

They have the F-sport mirror covers available in Japan for about $150. I considered getting them on my white RX as well but I decided against it.

The real carbon looks awesome. But I would be concerned that dirt gets trapped underneath and eventually scratches the real housing. Also it makes only the top half of the housing bigger, which looks funny and adds to your wind drag and possibly introduce wind noise issues. Let us know how it goes!
