Engine bay mirrors, chrome etc

I'm finishing up my '84 TA showcar.. I'm trying to deside what to do under the hood. I had it repainted but I want some type of mirrors or polished metal.. Where do you get it at? I can't find any place online that has anything.. I know they make some type of plastic mirror that holds up under heat...

I used the more flexible plastic type mirror. You should be able to purchase it from a mirror cutting shop or a place that sells different plastics. Here's the 88 when it was a show car. At this time we did not drive the car, so we didn't have to worry about heat from the motor. Maybe you could attatch the mirror so it could be removed for driving.

Any plastics supplier should have it...just be sure to attach it with strong velcro, because it will melt if you drive around with it on.
