WTB: Used mirror housings for R8

[0000R8]

If anyone has replaced their R8 mirror housings with Carbon Fiber and is interested in selling their original external mirror housings, I am looking for a set to paint. Please PM me if interested. Thanks!

Wow! I got a really rude PM (including cussing) from another forum member who I will not name because apparently I should not have posted this WTB here. So admin, please move this thread to the correct section. I see now that there is a specific WTB section.

I am a newbie to forums but I guess there is no tolerance. My post count is low basically because I am not forum-savy. At any rate, a PM like I just received is a real deterrent to continued participation - but maybe that is his goal. I just hope his intolerance is not representative, otherwise I could see a negative impact on forum participation from us less forum-savy but still R8-loving members!

maybe you deserved it!

Kidding.. don't sweat it, and let's move on.

Hopefully you get what you need from OEMPLUS. What color is your R8 and what color are you painting the mirror?

Was the PM from a moderator or someone with some authority on the site? That is really odd.

Don't let it deter you from using this forum, some people don't play nicely on the internet.

Let me know who it was and I'll gladly go kick the living snot out of their shins whist wearing my motocross boots!

Pin heads like you've mentioned, especially to someone that's new to the site, are definitely uncool and a reason to not come to forum boards. (this hits home for me, as I'm an admin of an off road site and have to deal with them on occasion - not fun!)

That said, this site has to be one of the nicest and best self policed boards I've had the pleasure of being a part of. Don't let one moron spoil it for you. The mass majority of the members here are really good people.

Take Rich up on his offer - he's a great guy to deal with and has some of the best customer service I've ever encountered.

Thanks for the kind words. We've got a nice set of caps going out today!

Kfab...and I will stand there and pour salt on his wounds.
