Bought some export mirrors from fellow member abood89. My grand plan is skin the bottom portion in carbon fiber and then paint match the top to the car. I started the tear down process of the mirrors tonight and began sanding to prep for paint. Below are a couple of pictures. I'll try and update this thread as progress is made :thumbsup:
Good luck with the project! I plan on doing the same to my set of export mirrors. Really can't wait to see the CF part in progress / finished.
One word explains all the crazy things people do to their vehicles... *clears throat* *Ahemmm...* *Wait for it...* RACECAR
wouldn't it mean less drag with them folded in? and if its a racecar the looseres are behind you so who cares about them right?!
Finally got all my stuff to begin skinning these mirrors....I just can't decide which part I want to skin. The base, or the actual mirror housing, thoughts? I've thought about the following combinations: 1. CF skinned base with red mirror housing 2. Red base with CF skinned mirror housing 3. Black base with CF skinned mirror housing
ugh I need export mirrors in my life haha. Sweet project. I vote #1 just because red cars and red mirrors are tits.
