jimmykool111 Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 got given this from greenlandy. I now need to source a left hand side wing mirror (passenger side). In a similar condition. The reason for this is to fit racing mirrors, so I'm cutting off the old mirrors and just using the the triangle part that fits to the car Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT4 Zed Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 What a coincidence! I'm about to do the same thing and was considering making my own base from thick and plastic and bonding it to the door. This is a good idea if I can get a damage base like this from the breakers. Where did you get your mirror? Is the mirror blue and curved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a chunk missing out on the corner so I had to re make that, but apart from that I think it's an easier option to just mod the existing wing mirrors Think it came from a silver Z. I've tried some of the breakers on eBay but no luck yet Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT4 Zed Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I've found similar with with one or the other but I want one that is both curved/convex glass and tinted to give wider angle of vision and reduce glare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I used to have some similar mirrors on an Rx7 and they were next to useless, no matter what i did if you hit any sort of reasonable bump they would always move position and visibility was poor. Just a heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT4 Zed Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Thank for that JP. Thought of that so get the GP style ones that are larger and have heavy duty fittings. I'm also getting the 17" rear view mirror inside to increase visibility. This is just to save some weight, reduce drag and look the part. I will almost have no road use after the next stage of mods on my zed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Probably fine on a smooth track buddy, but they didnt fair well with pot holes and bumps. Maybe it was just the ones i owned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
