aftermarket mirror options for 96-00 ek's
Hit ebay and type in "civic mirror 00" or google image search.
Some mirrors aren't available anymore.
Spoon/Civic type-r are pretty common.
The Vision mirrors that are teeny tiny are also pretty popular. There's a company on ebay that makes F1 style mirrors pretty cheap.
You could probably also buy almost any motorcycle mirrors you like and fit them into a mirror block off plate and make your own mirrors.

The Spoons look good, but I will tell you this....you can't see **** out of them except for the sides of your car. The angles are just all wrong for our cars. Just wanted to point that out so you won't be surprised if you go that route.
This is true. My wife wanted a pair of them and she loves them but I hate driving her car because I can't see $#!+!!!!
I have the TYC mirrors that JDMSH!T sells and I can't tell any difference between them and my oem mirros besides the fact that they're blue tinted and a smaller mirror. The angle and view is more than enough to see my blind spot. Which is all I really need. I 90% use my rear view mirror on the center of the car. I hardly use my driver's side. My passenger side mirror is mostly for my blind spot. If you can see your car in either of your side mirrors you're doing it wrong.
Reviews on these mirrors with regard to visibility are very mixed. There is also a fix for the mirror if you can't get the angle right.

It is obvious you have never driven a car with Spoon mirrors before. These things will only adjust so far and I'm telling you, you can't see ****. Oh sure, if I took the seat out and sat directly on the floorboard, I might be able to get a better angle then, but sitting in a regular seat, forget about it.
I haven't looked through "Spoon" mirrors. But it's hard to believe that real Spoon mirrors have worse visibility than TYC knock-offs.
There's really no good option. I think it's silly to change your mirrors to something that you can't see **** out of.
I'm even guilty of this. I spent $400+ on some cf motorcycle mirrors on block off plates. It was absolutely ridiculous, I couldn't see nearly as well with my OEM mirrors.
