AutoTecknic Carbon Mirrors - Too Picky?

[digitalvinyl]

I recieved my AutoTecknic carbon fibre mirrors (link) and I'm wondering if I'm being too picky in wanting to send them back. I feel like the pattern change on the lower portion of the mirror is going to drive me nuts. Does anyone else have carbon mirrors with the same kind of pattern change in that location? I wound understand if it happened lower where it goes back to horizontal so it isn't as pronounced but where it is I feel like I'd stare at it whenever I'm changing lanes.

It took me a while to figure out what you meant by "pattern change". I bought the exact same mirror covers. I never noticed the pattern change. https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/upgrade-to-carbon-fiber-mirrors.20065/post-339550

The OCD part of me looks at this and that contrasting weave at the joint is just a plain "no".
There's also something odd going on with a line in the pattern further up.
I'd send it back, tell them why.
Appreciate this is a third party add on, so for the price it might be acceptable.
The OEM's have quite a few differences, certainly not this contrasting joint, and well "if you know" then "you know".

OCD in me will always think, "these are not OEM." With past cars, I've wasted a lot of money going aftermarket, only to end up buying the part in OEM. Go OEM....

Those need to go back. That's pretty bad.

FWIW, these on Aliexpress are half the price and look like Porsche made them. I've had them on my car for 6 months.
