Default Aftermarket mirrors

Has anyone found mirrors for our civics and crx's that are more aerodynamic than our square stock mirrors?

if anyone has seen toucan industries' orange rsx (featured in an HCI pullout poster a couple of issues ago) or this blue jdm EG hatch (also in HCI poster a couple of issues ago), you will see what type of mirrors i'm talking about... they're are 'triangular' lookin and i think mirrors like these would look sick on a 4g hatch...

anyone found any out there???
thanks!

i don't mean the led kind... i want mirrors that just look like a barely noticeable wedge stuck on the side of your door...

here's a pic from the toucan rsx, but they dont make them for the ef civics...


anyone kno if there are similar mirrors available for ef's?

i hear you can easily modify spoon style mirrors from an 92-95 civic onto the ED chassis...

so if thats the case anything from the 92-95 years can be done...

So you want your car to have mirrors that look like they came right off of a newer model camaro?

hmm... they do seem like they'd be a tad dinky... and i always thought camaro mirrors were nasty themselves... heh... oh well... i just want some better lookin mirrors and i've never really come across any good looking ones... i found that crx page where someone put APC accord mirrors on a rex, but im not sure if i'd want mirrors like that... i guess i'll keep searchin...

makes the car look cosmic, when its not. while adding these mirror, you should also consider adding on fins, so extra stability during top speed runs .
