Yes I'm UK based (York).

I've emailed Wenday at OYA to ask if she does the wing mirror covers for cars pre 2010.

Looks like we could get some interest regarding a group order!

Cheers Matt, looking at the photos of John (Keever) CF mirror covers, his V8V seems to be defiantly pre 2010.

Morning Matt, any response from Wendy at OYA ?

[northernmedia]

Yes but in very much pigeon english ...

'Dear Matt,
thank u for ur email.
i am sorry that keep u confuse. this parts is original picture , not carbon picture, the carbon is black.
let me know any items u want order.
have a nice day.
thank u.

Wendy'


I'm pretty sure we can get the AM17 wing mirror covers in Carbon as they're the same price as the post 2010 ones pictured.
The AM17 pic only shows them in light grey hence my wanting for clarification.

Has anyone on here ordered AM17 covers?

I got a couple of pigeon english replies on the Kamm Tail Spoiler as well
They cannot say whether it will fit a roadster so I'm out.

I just had a look at their website directly for AM17. It is definitely a Carbon product.

They also have AM3 which is also a side mirror cover in carbon for an Aston but I'm not sure which model it is for?

Shame that Mike - a simple question to answer you'd of thought!
Not sure if its any help but thevcollection don't distinguish between the 2 which I would take as them being the same?

I suspect they won't be able to tell you if it is for a coupe or roadster or both. They probably got a rear spoiler from somewhere and made a copy for it without understanding what its for. Pretty typical for chinese aftermarket.

The chances are it is for coupe. If you can find out somewhere else if a coupe spoiler will fit a roaster then you got your answer.

Mikey K,

Looking on the OYA site for the Kamm Tail

http://www.oyacarbon.com/products_detail.asp?conte...

This looks the same as the the one from Vcollection. Have a chat to them and see if their one will fit a roaster. I suspect they are the same product.

Matt,

Let me know if you have any luck with Wendy about the wing mirror covers. If you don't then I can give OYA a call later this week as I speak a bit of Cantonese.

I can tell you 100% that the VCollection parts are not the same as the parts you're discussing.

AM17 wing mirrors are in carbon

Shall we look at compiling a list?

Good news Matt, just double checking AM17 CF wing mirrors covers are for pre 2010 V8V?

Hi,
Thanks a lot sir for confirming that.
I think indeed we need to know if they fit pre2010 cars.
If so we are ready for compiling a list.

Regarding requesting discount:
Would it make sense try to investigate if there is a possibility to negotiate a discount based on total order value?
Or would it be easier to first make a list and then see what they can offer?

I think if you want to compile a list, it would be wise to start a new thread now so we can keep track in the OP what the latest standing on the order is.

What do you reckon?

Getting a carbon fiber going on here!

KR,
Brakke

Yep emailed them earlier asking if AM17's will fit a PRE 2010 vantage - as far as I'm aware there are only 2 types...pre & post 2010 so I reckon they should be fine.

I'll let you know what they come back with.

Cheers for that Matt, hopefully they are able to confirm back in legible English so we can start compiling the list.

Any news from our Chinese friends?

[northernmedia]

Nope - it appears that requests to ask what fits what get ignored somewhat!

I wanted to double check the fitment of the wing mirror covers. Just sent a chase email.

What are you looking at getting?

[Brakke]

Hmm..
Too bad.

My wish list:
AM5 CF rear light inserts
AM14 CF Side strakes
AM19 CF kamm tail
AM23 CF Front lip v-style
CF mirror covers if they fit.

Already bought the rear diffuser now somewhere else for a good deal, its a big hassle getting that installed, so I thought this way I can go ahead with the rear diffuser without having to wait for our Chinese friends.

Regards,
Brakke

[northernmedia]

nice one -

They've come back saying that they think the Am17's are for a 2011 model.

I've gone back to them and said that there are a number of us looking to order covers for cars 2005-2009 - querying the fitment of these (explaining that this is the only thing getting in the way of potentially a large order!)

Hi Matt!

Thanks for the update. Let's see how this plays out.

Good night,
