Default A5/S5 CARBON FIBER PACKAGE?

Am I the only person who has ordered the Carbon Fiber Package? Has anyone come across any pictures of the CF Mirrors or spoiler? I am anxious to see what it looks like outside of what is displayed in the brochure. I should be taking delivery sometime in April:

2018 Audi A5 Prestige

Glacier White

S-Line Package

Carbon Fiber Package

Grey Wood inlays

Here's an S4. Should give you somewhat of an idea.

I'd totally missed that in the order guide (under port-installed accessories)...thanks for pointing this out, but looks like it's an option on the coupes only, not sportbacks?

Here is a photo of the mirror. I prefer the standard painted one myself though.

CF only seems to look intriguing to me with a white car, maybe silver/gray in some situations. Any other color sort of makes it not worth the price. I recently saw the CF spoiler at the dealership on an A4 that appeared to be Moonlight blue. I didn't notice the spoiler until the dealer pointed it out to me which defeats the purpose in my opinion. However, it would have been nice if the CFP included the inlays as well.

I don't believe it to be an available option on the sportbacks.

I'm not aware that ordering the carbon package get's you mirrors and spoilers in carbon? I just saw a 2018 S5 with carbon package and it only covers the interior. Also I don't see an option to get the mirrors in body color?

The CF mirror/spoiler are in the order guide under port-installed options - the on-line configurator only is for the CF interior trim.

See page 11:
