I'd say if you got your car that far without our opinion I would keep doing what you like because your car is looking good.

theyre nice, but i dont think they will look good on ur car. ur kit is boxy and looks good w/ the boxy stock mirrors, the ganadors are too smooth and sleekish looking. plus like 500 buks

Ganador mirrors. I really want to add them in gloss black to my car.

Does anybody know if they are made specifically for RHD or do they have the actual mirror portion made for LHD as well? I don't want to end up with an "OBJECT MAY BE CLOSER" on the driver's side, and a "regular" mirror on the passenger side.

Thx for the input,guys.With the stock mirrors I think somehow its stick out too much and with the ganador mirrors,it blend in more with the shape car.agree guys?

cheers,
Jerry

Amit. they are made for RHD but u can make em fit on LHD, their turning radius of the lens is kinda crappy tho b/c of this situation tho i believe.

i believe i've read Volk350z saying the passenger side mirror was difficult to see out of due to the RHD design. I wonder if you can swap the left and right mirrors so that you can use it for LHD cars?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Hopefully they make LHD mirrors (the actual glass/mirror). I mean, the housing would stay the same anyways.

I don't think you can swap since it would be a mirror image (no pun intended), and hence it wouldn't fit if you swapped the mirror portion.

hahaha yeap my mirrors will be going on soon, i absolutely love em, especially the view looking out of the car

i do agree with above that theyd suit a more curvy bumper and skirts

Not so sure about your Ings Jerry, dont think they'll flow that well - check out the veilside mirrors, otherwise the Craftsquare mirrors to complete the racey look

i went for the full cf pattern, my decision now is whether to paint them while the car is in the shop getting the kit fitted
