Wow no offense but Viper666 fuck off? My god that’s ignorant. Turbobird please ignore him, apparently he just found out his gf gave birth to several mexican babies. Explain what type of mirrors you are looking for so we can help point you in the direction you need. ---

The only thing I’d be concerned with is that they are made of ABS plastic, which I’m not sure will take on paint too well. If this is a Function \> Form type application then I don’t see a problem with that at all. Convenience of having a fold in mirror would be nice ---
