    Looking to trade my OEM SQ5 matte Al mirror caps for Daytona (w/side assist)

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    This is a long shot, but I figured I'd at least try...

    I want to go with matching Daytona mirror caps over the OEM aluminum ones. Does anyone with DGP Q5/SQ5 want to swap for my matte Al?? It takes 10-15 mins to remove them, and I figure it could be a straight up swap with both parties shipping out the same day. If you're interested in the more sporty Al look, it's not going to get any cheaper than just paying shipping.

    Mine have side assist cut-outs and have ~10k miles on them (a couple minor rock divots). They are perfectly fine, just not 'mint', and I'm located in 29405.

    :fingers crossed:

    Could be a sweet deal for both parties involved.

    Yeah, it's a couple hundred to get them painted, and new Al ones go for $800+. Hate to waste money to paint over the expensive OEM Al finish if someone else would appreciate them!

    I'm on vacation right now, but I'll post some pics next weekend when I get back. Obviously I would need to see pics of any proposed daytona covers also before this could all go down. Anyone interested can feel free to PM pics of theirs. I'm not going to be interested in anything with significant imperfections...not for a straight up trade at least.

    And, there's no 'damage' (unless someone has broken into my garage and vandalized them since I left!)...just normal 10k 'wear'. I'm not even sure how good my camera phone will be able to capture the few small marks, but I will certainly do my best. I expect any possible daytona covers that have seen road time to be very similar to the condition of mine unless they have a protective film applied. I'm VERY picky about my car, and like on the front end, I only notice the minor bug/rock divots when I'm doing a deep cleaning/waxing. I'd give mine an easy 8/10, maybe even 9.

    I have Daytona Side mirrors with side assist, wrapped in XPEL clear bra, <100 miles on them.

    I already have AL mirrors, but would sell these at a reasonable price.

    Well, I pulled the trigger on snig's caps, so I'm no longer interested in a trade. If anyone is interested in my Al ones, feel free to make me an offer. I'll post some pics when I get home this weekend. Thanks for the responses and feedback thus far!
