Does anyone have a pic of a spider with fender mounted side mirrors. I was thinking of going with that type of look but am having a rough time invisioning it.

WOW, ask and you will get an answer. Not only was that exactly what I was thinking of doing but they were the exact same mirror I was going to go with. I don't think I will pursue this idea any further. Thanks guys! :shock:

Aside form the plaement of mirrors, and this is just my opinion, that is a beautiful far. If I were to pur mirrors in that locating , my choice would be the abarth ones because they wont stick up as much. But that blue sure is nice.

These are a bit more appropriate as fender mount mirrors (not a Spider, mind you, but you get the idea). I like the look, and with some practice they are ok (but only ok) for situational awareness. However, everyone seems to like them, judging by the comments.

Redline, I like those, very nice coupe. With coupes older is better. Where did those mirrors come from?

They came with the car, so unfortunately I have no idea of origin.
