not my taste, but they're not hideous either.

Re: What do you think of the mirrors?
I'll bet they vibrate less than the OEM ones?
Truth, they almost look like they belong....almost. The OE ones match the overall wedge of the C4 and yea at first I thought C5 take offs. Not bad though. The windshield was / is cracked Jeff?  Tom

 Well, not my cuppa tea, Jeff. Not really that bad tho, but a bit much - especially on a standard C4. But, truth be known, the view in a Z, with it's wide butt leaves a little to be desired. Something like that might be better than the stock mirrors on the Z? Dunno... Then again, there is the Italian rule of racing: (from the movie "Gumball Rally") "What's behind me...IS NOT IMPORTANT!" p.

Re: What do you think of the mirrors?
The OEM mirrors are really small, but they sure look good on the car. Those don't.

Re: What do you think of the mirrors?
This car was being rebuilt after being hit.. bodywork and paint were do at this point. but the cracked windshield and weatherstrip were still needed..
for the Mirrors it is a love/hate thing I guess. I wish the C4 mirrors were a tad larger and think these look better then the Euro breakaways that were used on a C4. granted these are not break away. but look like they work. If these were installed at the factory this way I think the answers might be different
