Is there anybody else who can't stand their side view mirror

ponyup · March 5th, 2007, 09:32 PM

Has anybody found a replacement for the ugliest part on their new Mustang yet?
Man, the first thing I noticed were those clunky, large black afterthought mirrors with absolutly no style. The car deserves better!
I guess Street Scene has some in the works but who knows when they'll be released.
This is tradgedy that must be corrected.
What else is out there??????

the best you can do right now is to get covers that are painted to match your color or chrome

I always kind of dug my mirrors. I waxed mine with Turtle Wax Ice

, and it seemed to make them shine up and look a lot better. This is a wax which can be applied to any surface on your car's exterior, and instead of leaving that white residue on rubber & plastic, it shines it up some.

ponyup · March 5th, 2007, 09:41 PM

Not much better I'm afraid. Why the heck has the aftermarket not caught on yet?
Seems like such a big market.......

I think that Xenon makes a cover for them that changes the look of them to something more racey...you might want to check their website...

Luis_GT · March 5th, 2007, 11:39 PM

Well, I like my stock mirrors... guess everyone has there likes....

A company called Agent 47 makes some side mirrors that aren't too bad. Can't say how good they are, have only seen pictures.

TheUNZippee! · March 6th, 2007, 10:14 AM

Call me crazy, but I like the factory look. Everyone likes their own style, though.

HMUSN · March 6th, 2007, 10:46 AM

here is Agent 47's stuff

I'm not feeling those ones.

Jucostud · March 6th, 2007, 10:54 AM

I like the factory look the best.

MaverickMLFD371 · March 6th, 2007, 11:10 AM

Mine are Mirror Covers, they are molded pieces that are the shape of the mirror. the name of the company is DG Custom Auto. guy there is Craig, he's awesome! All their products comes pre-painted! I payed like $200 for them, and still love them. I even have their quarter window louevers which are great

ponyup · March 6th, 2007, 01:17 PM

Not that crazy about the Agent 47 mirror either. It actually looks alot like the mirror off of a '73 Mustang! Right for that year, wrong for the '05.
The stockers are just to big and clunky looking, painted or not.
I'll post a picture of the Street Scene one's I found while searching the other day. I would bet most people would prefer that one over the other stuff that's been posted.

I love the look of that. Just look at what alittle paint can do!!!!!!!!

ponyup · March 6th, 2007, 06:28 PM

This is something I would be interested in. A little more "sporty" with a swept look.
