Box / packaging doesn’t look OEM. Shopdap must have repackaged to save on shipping. I had the same issue with needing to file the inside clip slightly. Looks great!
Love your content! It's these small cosmetic mods, or any mods, that makes us happy. I can tell how happy you're in this vid. Got mine off eBay for $26. Just could not justify $220 OEM when they are both ABS plastic. Same for the Oettinger spoiler eBay $90. Especially seeing the Oettinger fits just as crappy as an ABS mold. Keep up the mods!!
I’ve been trying to find some glossy black mirror caps for my white mk6 Jetta but I haven’t been able to find any. Seen this at least does confirm it would look great.
I’m thinking about these for my white Alltrack. They look great. Thanks for the vid. How’s the surface holding up? Seems like piano black gets scratched so easily.
its not scratched at all unless you hold a light right on it. in other words, they hold up KILLER... now if you buy a chinese brand for 1/2 the price... good luck.. oem is key bro.
You mean a streak? Yes, I am. But I am about done. The car is more enjoyable now. It will keep me satisfied for another year or so, until the next car comes.
@@LastHumansGarage so we are the same. I always buy two times more expensive but they charge 200 dolars for 2 pieces of plastic. Probably for americans it is still cheap price
Can't wait for this one. Mine is Shadow Blue so I dunno how much of a difference these would make, but they've gotta look great on the white.
they wouldnt be very noticable on dark blue, but still would be a nice subtle mod
Just a heads up, you don't have to take the mirrors out to install these. You can just tilt the mirrors to get to the clips.
Are you able to fit your fingers in there without removing the glass?
It takes 10 seconds to pop the glass out of the way...
no way, you'd never get to those clips.
oh like tilt the glass down, i could see that, but i could see it being more of a struggle
@@LastHumansGarage It wasn't so bad, I didn't want to risk breaking the mirror. I did have a trim tool though to pop the clips.

REALLY.. same issue? wow, its not just me. great minds think alike

thanks bro
Should have bought those black dynamic turning signals so the entire mirror looks black. But what you got there already looks great.
hmm black turn signals? never heard of them. sounds cool tho.
👍👍 looks great , definitely arrived quick.
video was a nice surprise on a Friday evening lol
they arrived faster than i thought they would.
2:00 THAT POWER STANCE! That’s a great tip on filing the clip. Looks gReat!
slow and steady prevents mistakes. gotta get your stance right
Now is the time to enjoy your car. It looks terrific
i think so. now its something i can at least enjoy, unlike this time 3-6 months ago.
Looks so much better
I would coat them so you don't get scratches
Thanks for the video
hmm didnt think of coating them.. i do have ceramic coating left.. unless u just mean wax them
Coating doesn’t prevent scratches. PPF would. But coating sure makes it easier to clean it.
Looks good.. I have them as well with the auto folding mirrors
nice

black gloss looks great on any white car, I've done that theme on my last 5 or so cars, except the one i have now.

@@LastHumansGarage Good point regarding durability and Chinese vs OEM.
Dude love the contrast
ya me too. i didnt think they'd look THIS good.
Looks good! Wish DAP had gloss black for MK6. They only have primed 😞
oh damn.. you gotta paint them yourself.
You shoulda done the turn signals while in the mirror.
i've thought about it, but i don't love them really.
Mark those mirrors look Sick!!
thanks Richie Rich
Nice upgrade.
I think so too!
Looks fantastic!! Awesome video man!
Thanks for the visit
They look good! Almost bought them when I first bought my car. Ended up getting euro folding mirrors with black caps for the same price recently!
oh the auto folding mirrors? ya thats a bit much for my taste, but they work good.
Looks great u need some gloss black wheels now 😉
lol, no money for that for sure.
@@LastHumansGarage😅😅😅
2:50 your neighbour with a white civic trying to get your attention
thats a G35 or G37.. i slo-mo'd it..
I have the carbon fibre on my R
nice Donker
Are these the same as the mk7 GLI?
95% likely.. i doubt they have cheaper mirror caps on the jetta, but maybe.
Dude! Glad you got those fitted, they look sick 👍
Yeah thanks
Great mod bro, you are on a strike here :-)

@@LastHumansGarage Yes, I meant streak indeed, hahaha... My english is not powerful enough ;-)
@8:33 that’s what she said
dood that's about right..
get some old school bbs rims
would be sick. problem is they usually dont come in 17/18.. more like 15/16.
OEM costs 10 times more than fake. Come on
lol.. can you take an exaggeration? but i only buy the best... i enjoy the finer things when i can afford them.

STI, or forget it..
lol i'll need a lot more views and subscribers to get an STI in 2022..
