Icon2 Jdm spoons for a STD

Recently got some spoon mirrors for my 91 HB, since i'm tired of looking over my shoulder. They are for 88-91 CRX/Civics, but mirrors themselves say CRX on inside. Unfortunately they don't flush up at the bottom of the rubber window seal due to rounding bottom. Anyway around grinding the mirrors or the rubber molding? A friend of mine said if anything the molding can be replaced (but it seems like under it is door frame)? Wondering if this is true before i take the drimmel to em.

Thanks in Advance for any Help.

Ordered them from PWJDM, so if thats ebay items then yea, called them to ask why they don't fit flush and they said thats how they were made for all 88-91 crx/civics. They said go ahead and start grinding hah. Just was looking for a second opinion.

i have a 91 civic dx hatch. came with no side mirror from the factory. NO mirrors ive bought have fit. although the side mirror off my 91 si hatch fits no prob. of course when you buy them the fitment is for 88-91, no specofic trim. whyy the hell does only the si mirror fit! lol i may be going to the honda dealer for this one

As for pwjdms customer service i've learned this now hah.

As for making the mirror fit, out comes the drimmel. Seems to be a perfect line along the plastic that might just be enough to make them fit.

WISH ME LUCK!

I replaced some M3 wannabes on my old 90 Crx SI with some stock hatch back mirrors and they never fit on right. One of the screws didn't even match up. So I highly doubt they will fit correctly
