Got some new mirrors.
Well I can't spend $500+ on some Creaftsquares so I went with Autoteknics which look pretty close if you ask me. I got them from JDM autoboutique. It's the first time I had ever dealt with this company and will most likely buy from them again. They shipped them fast and the customer service was everything I hope for when buying from anybody.
Just dropped them off to my painter to have the bases and housings painted silverstone and the stalks will be left black. I'll update this thread once I install them.
Going on this:
I am really lovin' the new look. And being that they are convex really helps in minimizing blind spots. They were kind of a b!tch getting them adjusted and locked in but they feel pretty solid as far as them moving if I hit a hard bump or something.
Half way done:
All done. Cleaned her up and took a drive so I would have some different scenery instead of being in my garage or driveway all the time. If you click on the pics, they will expand.

BTW, I'm not one to care a whole lot about how much weight is being saved but these things are very light. When I get them back from paint I'll weigh them on a digital scale for anyone that DOES want to know how much they weigh. I'll also weigh the OEM mirror.

Nice. ITG?
Im not a fan of replicas but these look clean. The weave looks exactly like the craftsquares I had.
Craftsquares have polished bases though.
