I broke my spoon mirror lens. The trim was falling off and I thought it would be a good idea to just take that part off. I am a dumbass, it broke in three.
Anyone know where I can get a lens replacement for that or any car whose factory lens would fit? Thanks.

try a place that sells glass. they can probably cut out a piece for you. just a thought...

 

You're not the first person to have this happen. The mirrors are really fragile. As suggested above, check with a local glass/mirror supplier, they can usually cut a piece to replace it, shouldn't cost more than 20 bucks. If not, try one of those guys that sells the knockoff mirrors, the glass is the same size, and some of them come seperate, packaged in pairs, same size as Spoon. My roommate bought a set, and the actual mirrors were seperate, they said "sports mirror" or something like that on the package.

 

Do you have any idea where to find new trim for the spoon mirror? Mine broke, and I can't find anything to replace the trim.

 

pm allmotorb16 i just brought a set of replacement mirrors from him

 

thats exactly why i traced my mirrors on cardboard before i bought them so id have a template to take them to a glass shop if that ever happened

 

Cause you got fakeys y0!

 

i have a set for $25.

 

Real deal breaks too... Unfortunately.

 

Mine broke too after 2 years, the plastic gave up on me . I just bought that rubber trim that goes along the edge of your door to avoid door dings. I bought it at Napa for like 6 bucks. It's lasted over a year without fading, cracking, or peeling, you can kinda see it here:





Not the best, but it looks alot better than the bare mirror. I couldn't get it to fit on the edge closest to the car, but I was thinking of slicing it down the middle and placing it on there. The rubber strip is a tight V shape, with adhesive inside, and wraps all the way around the edge of the mirror.
