Lightbulb Ganador & Ralliart Side Mirrors - ?

If you opted to get a sportier looking side mirror, which would you go for?


the boring looking Ganador





or the


Mickey Mouse Ralliart





As for me, would prefer the original best, and second comes the Ganador and then the Ralliart.... got the Ralliart because its unique and less people using it... So i'd suppose ori's for daily use, Ganador for show-off use and Ralliart for track use.... whatever!



PIAA wipers are great! seriously~!





looks great to me too~!






xepyt,

bought myself a used VIII unit, wasnt in mint condition, so i had to do it myself

out of curiosity, what makes the PIAA wipers so much better over the stock or other aftermarket ones?

I'm planning to get the carbon ganador mirrors... I've been told that the ganadors are lhd compatable. I'm not a big fan of the ralli art mirrors.

I went for the carbon Ganadors, but they are not made of real carbon fiber though. They are basically wrapped nicely with carbon-look stickers.

the mirrors are a ***** to see since they're designed with the driver on the other side. even with "adjustability," you won't see crap out of your driver's side mirror.

As far as I thought I knew both mirrors were convex, or both sides were the same instead of one being more magnified "objects in mirror are closer than they appear".

yeah i have the ganadors too... the driver side is fine with minimum adjusting. the right side is crap, the best i can do is adjust them to see the right side and a lane over; i had to adjust my habits to look even more often then i do for safety. to be honest i still love them though.
