A lot of people make their own.

Also you need 1 door mirror to stay legal.

yeah i am not losing my mirrors but i have a plan i want to try out.
i want to get 2 blanks and put stainless steel small bullt wing mirrors on them.
thought about using a base plate a fillering it but i need to bolt through it.
always wanted to see if it looked good coz in my head it does and now i have just a black car with chrome clear lights all round a big polished ss exhaust sticking out and polished rims i think it will work.
just have to try it to see for myslef. may look crap but gota try it.
