    A good friend of mine was telling me that he wants to change his stock mirrors to the carbon fiber mirrors found on the Stradale. I told him I could order a set for him from my dealer. We were figuring $1500 maybe $2000 for the pair? NOT!! I called my dealer and the mirrors are $6700 for the pair!! Egads!! Talk about sticker shock! I realize there is a low production issue here and that we're talking about a $200k car but $6700 still sounds unbelievably high! I bet the door panels are $10k apiece!!

    For that much you could fly to Hong Kong and get a knock off custom made and still save $$

    Jeffery -

    Somebody is stretching the truth -- or the price. They can be on your doorstep for around $1500/ea. "Mon" is correct is his Euro retail pricing.

    Jeffrey's dealer just knows that Stradale mirrors require new cambelts and electrical wiring harnesses.

    Daniel - Straight from the parts counter at an authorized dealership. He said $3340 each. I even confirmed it by saying "over $6,000 for a pair of mirrors??" and he confirmed that. Undoubtedly it's retail price but I can't imagine the dealer having a 100% markup on parts!

    They don't. It's up to 40 but many establish their own "Retail" price.

    Yup Jeff,
    That the price before discounted.
    There are 2 kinds of mirrors, one if for left hand drive and another is for right hand drive. Mine is right hand drive car. Plus it comes with full electrical stuff including heated mirrors. No motor or anything else needed. Simply plug and play thing.
