Please let me know, i need to re-order some good ones.

They look like real carbon fiber without the weird distortion lines fake printed ones have. If I had to guess, they were made by using a standard ABS mirror cap as a mold/backing, with a layer of actual CF laid over it, and then covered with a thick layer of resin. It's still not "real" carbon fiber technically, but is close enough for me that I don't care.
Definitely looks like the 3D CF stuff, when I move it under a light different strands have a brighter sheen than other strands.
