mirrors

other options for the door mirrors? was thinking of doing something to the window triangle, but cant figure what to do... just think it would look a bit more cleaner if it was attached to that with stock style instead of to the door skin

I did the same.. but i got like a bunch of other members and non-related articles.. i did something wrong. but thank you!

I'm curious what the camaro's would have looked like. those are the firebird style, i think the camaros run closer to the doors than the firebirds

Re: mirrors

They've got a flat spot on front because the fenders kicked out to cover some. IMHO itd look odd

C5 mirrors dont look bad either

That looks like a generic picture. C5 mirrors mount on the doors.


I don't think they follow the body lines of thirdgens too well but to each their own.

Re: mirrors

oh ok; thanks! just wish there was a aftermarket one that has the stock looking thirdgen mirror but molded to the window triangle so it looks a bit more slick.. just my honest opinion
