Default Orange 350z

I still get a kick when I've been out and come back to my Zed, but I think its time for a slight change. So, thinking of changing my door mirrors.

I think you guys will have more options over there, than we do in the UK.

Opinions and suggestions welcomed.

Only three options i would consider are these:







Last option is the Ganador mirrors. Im not a fan, but they are nice mirrors nontheless and a viable option.



Seeing as how your kit is full Chargespeed, i would prob opt for the last option, which is the Chargespeed mirrors. You dont have any carbon on your car i can see, so maybe consider painting them or leaving your stockies.

BTW, car looks beautiful bro.

The Veilsides look identical to the Chargespeeds iirc, just not carbon. Forgot about the Ganadors, though. I'll throw OP a pic.

The Craft Squares are great looking, but those small mirrors can be a PITA to drive with. I'd go for the carbign crafts, personally.

Veilside's and Chargespeed are closer in appearance then others but can easily be identified. Mine's and Strosek also make side mirrors as well.

Chargespeeds are almost useless to see out of while driving.

Ya, the Stroseks are horrible looking, and the mines are great looking, but over priced (about double the price of Chargespeeds and Veilsides) and harder to get. If they were only priced around the others, they would be my 1st pick.

I wanted Veilside's but Vivid gave me a great deal on the last set of Chargespeed's they had. Most of these mirrors mentioned are pretty rare to see but I'd say the Mines and Strosek's(as ugly as they are) are the rarest to see.

Never seen in person, but they are small like Flo said and honestly dont like that "curve up" support like the option on the craftsquares and ebay Autotechnik version.

If going with that type of mirror, the craftsquare's that i pictured are the way to go imho. Without that optional curve up support.

Thanks for all the replies lads.

Some good ideas there, liking the craftsquare but not sure I could put up with them as a daily driver.

Chargespeed look good also.

Has anyone seen these?
