Thumbs up

I have been thinking hard wether or not to get that RE-Amineya mirror set for my turbo seeing as how hard they are to come by makes them very rare in the US.I can't decide wether to leave the stocker power mirrors or buy these for the car.I think on a widebody these mirrors look great but I have the Erebuni 357 kit on my car so the mirrors might stand out more than the kit.What do you guys think?Theres a link in my other thread to the auction.Heres that pic of the silver 3 rotor ARF kitted FB with the RE mirrors on it.Let me know what you think.



Thanks

Whoops forgot the pic.This is the only FB I have seen with these mirrors.This is how rare they are.







Who knows I might have to make a set of molds off them if I buy them.

yeah, as I'm picturing it in my head, those mirrors won't look too good with the erebuni kit. I had the same dilemma...love the mirrors by themselves and I think they'd be a great convo piece, but they'd look crappy on my car.

You should get some small carbon race-style mirrors, like the bottom ones here:







The RE ones are just all too much IMO.



Cheers

Those look awesome plus the mounts look like they may work on the factory holes in the doors.Nice.

Carbon looks so cheap now. Everywhere I go people have like 'carbon fiber' parts on their car. White car with a black hood. Yellow car with a black body kit. Heck I even know ricers that go out and BUY the decal kits to make it look like they have carbon fiber parts. I like the part, just hate the colour.
