Carbon on any of the greys looks amazing. I'm zero help other than an opinion.

Plenty of pics of Nardo, Grigio, and grey-black online.

From my experience, it's always best to just go with OEM mirror caps. I had AutoTecknic mirror caps on my E46 M3 and they began to look like shit within a year. Not to mention they didn't perfectly align and had a noticeable lip.

Same can be said for the cheap overlays, which I personally never even bothered purchasing but have seen in person.

If you want quality finish, zero overhang or awkward looking lip hanging on the edges, go with OEM. You can always find a set for a good deal on the forums or eBay if you're patient. I got lucky and found a set for nearly half of retail and they were immaculate.
