Yeah, I completely understand. It was really hard for me to pick as well, and it still is. I was considering keeping my OEM with blue convex mirrors, Craftsquares, or the Spoons. Ultimately I left it up to my wife to decide and she liked the Spoon ones the most. Also, I was told they were in stock, which really was what decided for me; since there was a few month wait on the Craftsquares. I ended up waiting 9 months anyway, so will see what I decide to do. I definitely attempted to purchase the Craftsquare ones in the for sale section several times, just always was a step too slow. I have a few other pieces coming in so maybe I will paint them all at once.

Chose to install the Spoon mirrors and my Accord door handles finally a couple weeks ago. I am not sold on the mirrors. They look really good from most front, front 3/4, and side angles; but they look too small for the car from a direct rear, and rear 3/4 angles. Also, coming from my blue convexed OEM sized mirrors, I lost significant visibility. The Accord door handles though cleaned up the sides nicely. I have some more plans for the car in the next few weeks as my parts continue to trickle in.

The mirrors are beautiful man. Can't wait to get mine to the body shop and get them fitted. I have seen them in person on an Amuse R1 front car and that is what sold me on them. That first photo really makes the car look like a toy.

Looks dope to me also, and that color I love. Must be that wide driveway that makes the S look like a s2 model in first pic. Good stuff!!!

It's funny I in that picture you car reminds me of the I DUNNO LOL Dog, those mirrors remind me of his ears and it's killing me.

Not seeing what the Accord handles are doing different then oem.

It's a change to see Spoon mirrors, It's different but not in a bad way
