Default F1 style mirrors (56K warning!)

Well here are the pics of what my car looks like with the F1 style mirrors. I know there was a few threads before about this in Civic forum so I decided to post it here.










Let's hear some comments.

that was an unnecessary comment. I personnally don't like them, I think they're too small. But if you like them then

Looks like mirrors from a motorcycle. IMO they dont look good at all. Go back with USDM.

I guess the mirrors are okay.. but honestly tell us the truth if the size of the mirros have actually increased or decreased your visibility of the side? with my experience with them u see less but whatever floats your boat

Thank you ALL for your opinions, unfortunatley some people just go too far. Anyways, to answer your questions. First of all I did get the spoon mirrors and they suck compared to these. Since they are manufactured for right hand drive cars, you practically can see anything in them. The backing plates that you see my mirrors attached to are actually from the Spoon mirrors. Second, these do decrease the view over the stock usdm mirrors, but right now the actual mirror is flat and I am working on a convex mirror to enlarge the viewing area. Why did I go with these??? Purely for the looks I think the car looks a lot lighter and has smoother counturs than with the stock mirrors. Some people may disagree, but that is my opinion. Also the mirrors are EXTREAMLY light, since they are made out of real carbon fiber, but once again who cars to save 3lbs on a mirror, right ?
