I've been considering getting a set also but was deciding between silver or black. Maybe we can see if Revozport would give us a discount for two orders? haha

go Tony... 
I vote for black. I'd go silver but painted, instead of CF.
nyuballer, replied your PM already hope it helps.

I just talked to Project Cars, Co Ltd. That's where I bought mine.
They can give a 20% discount if we have 5 orders. So, price is $195, shipped - regular is $250.
Only black CFs are available at this moment.
This is their site:

this is how it looks when I had it on my car.

and the matching front grill

Thanks for looking into this Eko but I don't know if that's such a great deal. I had talked to MyProjectCars before and they were going to give me one set for $200 so a group buy of 5 or more should warrant a bigger discount.
Besides from that, how was the fitment on yours? I've seen the one on Evosport's M5 at Bimmerfest and it was warping underneath and coming off. Not sure which company made theirs.

Tony, count me in for a set as well 
I say go for the EvoSport VRS CF mirror covers since it's by Vorsteiner (brand name)... Kinda expensive tho $500

See my note above about the Evosport piece. VT was there with me and we noticed that it was warping underneath.
