What do you guys think about these mirrors?

I really like them but I am not sure how hard/easy they are to install and whether I will lose my power window capability?

Why would you lose your power window capability?

Side mirrors mean nothing to me...except when I want to see the losa behind me.
Seriously, I don't think the OEMs look that bad...and I'd spend my money elsewhere, but these don't look to bad either. Just not for me. But I like the subtle change they would give ya.

Have the stock mirrors sanded and painted to match the body color. Then they won't stand out as much.

I think he meant to write power mirrors, and not power windows.

I think you do lose the power capability with those mirrors you linked to above.

Here are my painted Cobra mirrors ... in case any one cares:

I don't get the whole mirror thing. I'd rather have them blend into my windows than to have them blend with the car.

I'm happy with the stock ones. Then again, the mirrors are black and so is my car. I could see someone maybe not liking them if they had black mirrors and a red car etc.

If you must, go with the '03 Cobra mirrors!

Those mirrors are the APC mirrors. And you will lose your power mirror capabilities. I know someone who has those. They look cheap in person.

I had the black ones on mine for a week before I took them off, they fit awesome look even better, but no power mirrors killed me. My GF drives my car a lot and I couldnt stand manual adjustment. Cant find the pics sorry

When that company makes a power version I'd pay up to 400 for em, they looked that good.
