Chrome peeling off mirrors
« on: June 07, 2013, 04:58:56 PM »

After only 1 year the chrome is pitted and peeling off the mirror stems.  Dealer is replacing them.  Such crappy quality from china :soapbox:

I just had my dealer replace my mirrors.. the chrome was coming off and you could see bumps of corrosion inside the holes. SMH. Looks much better now.
