Default Spoon Mirrors or Bomex???

I finally am getting rid of my M3 mirrors tommorow, now should I go for the spoon cf mirrors, or be original and go for Bomex? I'm leaning towards bomex, but there dam expensive.

Neither, I could never justify spending over $200 on mirrors unless they came with a machine that gives you head while you drive. If money was no issue, spoon all the way but since money is an issue, replica is fine with me.

I have had bomex, they suck dick, look tight, they arent great for being functional - and they kinda hold water.

I think the Bomex mirrors flow better with the Bomex kit, otherwise, I'd go for Spoon...

No way, spoon is not played out. Anything you get, someone else is gonna have. Otherwise they wouldn't be manufacturing it! I would go with the spoon though. Better vision, better looks. Spoon.

I have bomex mirrors on both my ek and eg civic. I also got the same style mirror (re amemiya) on my fc rx7.

I like the aero look. Spoon looks good too, I have them for my EG as well, but dont use them. They are the fake ones.

if money is an issue, get the imiations off ebay.

if you wanna see the bomex mirrors check my page,

Well, if you want "JDM Aftermarket", both are good. as i said, you can buy the fake mirrors for like 40 bucks off ebay.
As for bomex, I dont believe anyone makes a copy....yet.
