I saw the plain jane black ones, and I'd prefer to get those. Unless the mirrors were real cf.

I've seen those on a car before. They're nasty. If you've seen the cap for Rota Slipstreams before, that's what they look like, basically silver and black checkers, doesn't look to much like carbon fiber in real life. Stick with the plain black, or save up for the real cf

The bases to the TYC mirrors are ugly as hell... you should have gotten EG ones.

I would have gotten the EG ones if I don't have to make them to fit, the base of the TYC is a bid wild but they are ok to me

I would say from a far they look decent but I wouldn't get them if your going for realistic carbon fiber.

Are the EG ones easily modded to fit on an EF (specifically a CRX)? Anymore information on doing this? Please let us know.

Also, how is the viewing angle on these mirrors. Do they provide a good view, comparable to stock?

Thanks
