New Mirrors, what do you think?? NEW COLOR!!!

[TOFIC]

NEW COLOR and later in thread, flush mounted door handles.

After clipping my driver side mirror with a 2x4 (dont ask) and thoroughly pooching the whole thing I went looking.
Found these on a late 80's windstar (aerostar) and thought they would work
Put them on and TOFWIC thinks they look "Preppy and queer"
I disagree, I think they look pretty good (except color) and work great
What do you think

Not sure if I'm diggin em. Post more pics when they are color matched.

I'm thinking I agree with the wife but let's see some pics once the color matches. Maybe it will look better then.

The wife is right this time :-* Stick with stock.

 

[Scoop]

Before these are dismissed as preppy and queer ;D let's see an overall shot of the Bronco. May look better seeing the "big picture". I like how they fold out of the way. Are they electric?

 

[BroncoMark]

Hmmm, too new age for an old school style rig like a Bronco.

 

[Jeepster]

At this point does it matter? The holes are there now.

Is dead on........

 

[SteveL]

lets wait for the whole picture. They may look ok when TOFIC gets his spinners and a wing for the back. Sorry TOFIC the wife is right on this one.

Get ready to replace when they get torn off... Try a motor cycle mirror that has swing away option.

 

[Madgyver]

If its good enough to pass our state's annual safety check then its good enough for me, Who cares what everyone thinks. But please paint it black.....

 

[steelframingone]

i think they look great-- "in canada"

 

[broncow72]

I agree with Madgyver. Paint 'em black, flat black or satin. That will take away what the Gumby green is doing. I also agree with him on "who cares?" You like 'em...that's what matters.

 

[TOFIC]

OK OK I get the hint.
The color is not that bad in real life just stands out with the camera
They are folding mirrors, not electric, and Jeepster is right the holes are there (now) Going back to stock aint an option the 2x4 took care of that.
I have to agree with Madgyver on this one, I will do the paint ( some textured fusion paint) and see what it looks like.

As long as you like it, it doesn't matter what others think!

 

[Pa PITT]

wait one minute ...before you rip-um-off..Paint um flat black and see what you think ....I think I could live with that just cant get past the light green
..Or use that KRYLON bed liner spray ...you may like them then....

 

[FoMoCo]

Paint may help. They seem to stand out to much with that color.

 

[ugly74]

I'm not so sure about those.

what I always wanted to use are "bullet" style mirrors from a Mustang or Torino

 

[brewdude]

Definately go with black.
