I'd get Spoons, and it's not a question that I can't afford them - what is in question is that I don't want to afford real Spoon side-mirrors. I don't see a point in buying authentic.

Here's the link to where you can purchase these mirrors:

http://www.autodynamic.com

You might want to check the Best Buys forum or ask around to see where they might be cheaper, or check out the Classifieds section as you might catch somebody selling their set.

You cant go wrong with number one but I voted for number two. Its the little details that can make your car stand out(if thats what you want).

For all of you saying #2 I hope you realize that its not real CF, its the fake spray painted black & grey pattern.

If I had to get one of the three I'd go with #1, but there are better Spoon mirror replicas out there.

I like the C/F style mirrors!

Is it true that Sp00n no longer sells/makes their racing mirrors?

I can't remember.

i'd say go for #1... #2 would be nice if the CF looked at least alittle more realistic... the fake ganadors are ok, but i dont think they look too good on hondas... goodluck with the choice

if you had to replace your mirrors, i suggest getting the Zero-4 Style and paint them to color match your car. I recently saw it on a yellow itr with a JDM front conversion. It looked awesome...

Thanks for all the input. I just saw a picture of an ITR with Option #3 and I must say, it looks really nice, and something different. With all the Spoon look-a-likes out these days, I think I should get those just to make it look a little different.

By the way, I'm planning to mount these on the Acura 1.6 EL that I will purchase as soon as winter arrives. I just want to keep the EL purchase on the downlow, and surprise you people when I begin to modify it, and you begin to see something a little "different looking" on these forums!
