Well I just bought these mirrors and I am about to put them On my S-13 the One that just got painted. Well any way I was just curious what the general consensus is on the mirrors. I am putting them on reguardless of what anyone thinks but hey i still like constructive critisizim.

They look nice but personally I think their a hazard, They dont cover enough area for me. I already dont like trusting my mirrors.

Yeah being in japan I am a mirror freak too but this car is really just a drift car that I sometimes drive to work. I have the same fear about them.

I don't like GT mirrors... If I were made to get aftermarket mirrors, I'd get Ganador.

What are gandor mirriors? Yeah the blinkers are in the side, and yes they are fake carbon fiber. I like them though no they are electric adjustable they wire into the stock switch harness and the blinker harness. They will look good on my S-13. Once I get my tein adjustables on and slam it to the ground and the white nismo LM-GT4 rims on there it will be GTG <----for all you Marines and ex-Marines.

Not diging the gandor's but they do look good on that car

01-03-2005, 10:27 PM

eh, they're not bad looking, but yea, I'd have to go with the Ganador mirrors instead. The other mirrors look as if they break easily. I guess I'd have to see what they look like on your car, first.

i have fk ones
i like em a lot, as far as covering area. the fk are convex broadway glass, better than stock imo

Yuck, i hate both those mirror sets.
Neither look better than stock, but i guess if they perform better it could be a trade off... id rather do a sweeping race style rear view mirror.

I like them, but I'd like them 100x more if you make some kind of plate to cover up the huge recess where the stock mirrors fit in.

Nice mirrors, they look similar to mine. Mine are Signal Auto and made of real CF. I swear they're lighter than air.
Cover the stock mirror mounting area with a sheet of CF and then mount the Aero Mirror mounting points on the door. Don't be a pansy... drill holes in the door.

Mirrors look nice, can't wait to see them mounted. I still prefer my EastBear mirrors, but those look like they will work well for a drift car.

I just actually put the same mirrors on mine. They look bad ass and they are both convex so your line of sight is not that affected by there tiny size.
