Man, I thought mine were scratched up bad. May have to sand them before putting them on.

Same here, I'm shocked too.

Scratch wise, one of the big reasons I wanted the cybertruck steel version was to practice matching the grain while refinishing the steel. It's worth the $150 premium for me to have a test bench of the same exact steel finished the same way, and then scratched, without having to try on my CT panels

So what’s the deal with the tiny magnetic side view mirrors it came with? Just a laugh?

Y’all paid 300 American dollars for that? Yikes..

Already regretting it, I'm returning them.

No way it just broke during install? Wow it’s also scratched to hell?

i ordered the cheaper set but damn might cancel seeing it break during install

Yeah, unfortunately. I think it has potential to be a great product. But for now I'm returning it.

3D Print using filament is not robust, we have those printers, they are for toys. Also the 3D filament plastic is PLA which is bio-degradable. So it will not hold up, or time, weather and temperature change.

Those need to be molded in ABS - ABS would also give more flex - you can align the mis-aligned holes by stretching the part a bit.

The SS finish is terrible, the plate stock should be 'finish' grade, with a protective film that stays on thru cutting. Or it should be post grained to match the CT.

Their intentions were good I guess...

Agree, but is true, not even a protective film on the SS. I hope is a good positive learning curve for them.

You don't know what you've got till it's gone!
For now, I will be keeping my mirrors when the CT gets DownUnder!

It appears a lof inviduals don't know, but the cybertruck was designed to not have mirrors. This was mentioned over and over during the making and reveal. Regulations forced the mirrors. So Tesla countered by making them easy to remove.

YES & YES ......
Besides, we all pretty much saw this, but when in doubt, l'm OUT! BORN BLIND IN ONE EYE (Left) DON'T HELP NONE!
For now, my training wheels with include the mirrors, until Tesla put the small left and right screens in the dash or when my CYBRTRK can drive itself on Aussie Roads and OFF ROADS!
