Default Craftsquare Carbon Mirrors Installed (no 56k!!)

Sorry for the poor shots...just took these quick. Got the Craftsquare mirrors put on the car today - and to make them "match" also added the Varis carbon B pillars. Despite what people say, the mirror is more than large enough to see out of. Downside, of course, is they are not power. Upside, is they weigh about 1/2 what the factory ones do, and more importanly for me, are a part you don't see on everyone's car.

Also got my new front wheels put on Friday - same wheels as I had before (Work Emotions), but now got the new 18x8.5 +20 offset - theey look alot more aggressive now, and the concave spokes match those of the rear alot better now.

well, my car is an 04..no heat. These are the very mirrors used in JGTC - their primary function is a wide angle field of vision (much wider than stock), and lightweight.....I agree though, it would have been nice to have them powered I just lied how they looked and though they would compliment the overall "theme" I have going on

thanks for the compliments!

thanks man - you did not see it at SEMA IAS? Looked alot different with the other wheels, but this is the everyday look.

Anyway, the mirrors are around $550 a pair for my version and the ones with the lights on top cost a couple $$ more

Nice. I like the fact that its actually got a made-for-350z base and not one of those drill n' bolt kind of things.

BWah looks so much better whith the new offset front wheels!! Did Work just start making that offset? I bought mine off you about a year ago, i was thinking about spacers for the fronts but the concave spokes make me wet.
