The ones I like are really expensive and come from a Porsche.

some I had on my beretta back in the day

they are sport bike mirrors too.

O.K. guys.....Thanks to all for the great feedback and ideas.

I believe I found what I am looking for in a motorcycle accessory company called "Rizoma".

They make some very trick mirrors for sport bikes that I think would look great on any of our cars.

I have not made a final choice yet, but here are my top picks: (The first mirror is my "#1 Choice")



"Circuit 851" in Black


"Circuit 851" in Silver


"Edge" in Silver



"Circuit 743" in Black


"Limit - Naked" in Black

I always wanted to keep the original look of the 1969 Camaro mirror on my car.
But , use a mirror that is just slightly larger ,and a wide angle mirror on the passenger side.
Like if a company made a replacement mirror that looked almost identical to the '69 mirror , but was larger..

One problem with the '69 mirrors is that you just can't see your blind spot.
The field of vision is too small.

I like the ones on Mike's Chevelle. They're from a Mazda Miata. Check out the link, the pics are in the first post.

The mirrors Matt(69MSA) is using on his stunning 69 Pro-touring Camaro are pretty cool and innovative. I think you can see several shots of them(he has the dark purple Camaro) in the 'Road trip to Pleasanton' thread under 'Open Discussions' starting on page 7.

These are from a 73 Laguna if I remember correctly, old with a moddern look.

Rick,

Those look darned good. Nice blend of old and new.

[Mr.VENGEANCE]

either the Edge or Limit will do.. all those others you use to spoon feed an ED209.



yum..

Sorry, but I hope you don't use one of the bike mirrors. Personally think they ruin the car. Our cars are supposed to be geared toward function and performance, and honestly those mirrors are almost worthless on a bike much less a car.

I agree.

Seeing them on a photo is one thing, but I think the proportions would look daft on a car.

I think his point was that they wouldn't provide any visibility for the rear, which looks very true. But I agree doesn't fit the aesthetics of our vehicles either.

I know...I agreed.....then added my own bit. lol.

Side mirrors are a very hard thing to get right.

People used to stick BMW m3 mirrors on to every modified car over here....now we all look back and think how stupid they looked.

Just because something is different from stock, certainly doesn't make it look nicer. Be careful.






Although it shouldn't really matter what you choose as long as your happy.....we have to chime in though, or it's pretty pointless having such a topic.

I agree...its your car, do what you think is best....the guys may have a point about the lack of vision from a bike mirror...on a bike your eye to mirror distance is closer than it would be in a car...might alter your field of view in the mirror somewhat. I'd try a bike mirror from a wrecking yard temporarily fitted to a daily driver....see how that works for you.

[Smock67]

So i think i may have found something for you guys check out this site
APR Performance They have quite a few different option but the universal and the one for the RX7 seem to be the best options. I have driven with these on my friend MR2 and they do have nice visibility.

[BaddestBuick]

Anyone know how the RS fabbed this mirror and made it work?
