sthouse ...get onto Sandy straightaway and tear him a new one.

Presume yours are the pre 10.5 slimmer type?

[R8VBV]

No mine are the post 2010, big boys.

They changed a few years back to a different size - I'm guessing that these are the other size. How old is your car?

I'm not sure they are the slimmer pre 2010 version. The shape just doesn't look right. I think they could be for a different car.

My car is a 2010 but the wing mirrors are massive, look like they are off a van, so assume they are the 10.5 onwards version.

These are the 10.5 ones for reference

[northernmedia]

yes yours are the later larger ones then.

You'll have no problems flogging the wrong ones tbh (providing we can work out what they fit of course!)

[R8VBV]

Has anyone actually bought AM21 (10.5 onwards) from OYA? Did they fit?

It looks like the ones I got were these http://oyacarbon.en.made-in-china.com/productimage... so could they be the slimmer version?

If the Carbon Fibre mirror covers are for a Pre 2010 V8 Vantage I would be interested in buying them from you

OK, let me find out what they are for first, and I'll PM you.

[Manwhoneverwas]

Thanks, have already sent you a PM

[R8VBV]

I've worked it out, they are for a DB7 Vantage or DB9 upto 2010. http://astonmartinbits.com/models/1-DB7/parts/1090

[Manwhoneverwas]

I have never seen any parts listed that OYA make for the DB7, they seem to be mainly for V8 Vantage and a few for the DBS.

Are you still planning to fit your CF light inserts as I would have been interested in these along with the mirror caps?

There's an existing plastic trim piece you have to remove to fit the splitter, give a main dealer a call and see if they share the same part?

Now that's a great idea..why didn't I think of that. Thank you.

No problem

So guys, it seems that the OYA description of AM21 was wrong and they don't currently make a cover for MY10.5 onwards. They have said however if I send them mirror caps from a MY10.5 they can make them.

Would anyone be interested in a pair if I commission these to be made?

If anyone wants to buy my carbon fiber mirror caps for a DB7 Vantage or DB9 up to 2010, let me know.

[Manwhoneverwas]

If we can get a spare set from both the Pre 2010 (smaller caps) and Post 2010 (larger caps) and get OYA to make these this would finally nail this down once and for all.

I would order a set of Pre 2010 caps and a set of rear light inserts.

Anybody got a spare set of mirror caps they could donate?

[R8VBV]

So a bit disappointed with OYA as, as soon as I asked what they suggest to solve the problem of them sending me the wrong mirrors, they stop responding to my emails, but what did I expect?! Not too fussed as they will sell easily on ebay.

Word of warning OYA don't make carbon mirrors for post 2010 Vantage! Their description in the catalog is incorrect.

[R334Wideass]

I allready have the 2006-2009 DB9 carbon mirror shells made. 9 sets of them in fact.

[med79]

Hello Guys, anyone here have ordered parts from Oya carbon in china for DB9 or DBS? i have DBS and wanted to make an order of back light cover, mirror shell cover and door panel part, most of the parts are written for V8 vantage but i doubt it a bit. your help would be appreciated.

Anybody else interested in some of these products?

I'm really liking the rear diffuser

[leerandle]

I'd be interested in some bits. Probably mirrors and side strakes for now. Would love a rear diffuser, but its my kids christmas as well as mine.........
