APC M3 style mirrors with the little blinker.


But more seriously, why are you asking a bunch of people you don't know to tell you what you like?

And they're side mirrors, how complicated can the installation be?

Go jdm all the way, get the spoon mirrors. You can get spoon mirrors on ebay for like 49.99 shipping included. Theyre black and look clean if you treat them with just a bit of armor all. Its only 3 nuts to install, literally. The tricke part is with the glass. You have to install that too. Be careful to not break it. Line it up before you stick it and press in the middle to stick on. Takes 15 minutes tops.

Spoon knockoff mirrors suck in terms of visability. So do the vision mirrors. I hear the non powered spoon mirrors knock off are a bit better cause the mirror is wider. Doesnt spoon make a wide angle blue tint mirror for their mirrors? or is it an OEM/JDM replacement?

there under "blue wide mirror"

CTR knockoffs are better. They don't powerfold, but actually do have the correct glass in them (flat on the drivers and convex on the passenger.)

I've had OEM, Spoon knockoffs, and the CTR knockoffs and I'd have stuck with the OEM if they hadn't broken. Other than that, I love my CTR knockoffs. Hated the Spoon knockoffs.

I think the Spoon race version was made by Honda. But that has been discontinued long time ago.
