Not a fan. Honestly, I can definitely see the 'ear' now, since that little opening looks like a lobe. Lol.
Looks decent as far as workmanship, but if you wanted something custom, why not a complete redesign instead of just cutting 2 inches of material off a stock on and calling it quits?

A for effort but meh. It doesn't go with the car. The car is sleek and that new mirror breaks the sleekness and it does looks like an ear

i like the look of a traditional mirror the stock one has more of a ricer look (extra wing/spoiler efffect) to me and was just trying to cleanup, was going to just fill in pocket to maybe blend more like the camaros which is sleeker and blends nice.Also just trying not to have same ears as everyone else and trying something different THANKS for input!

I didn't like it till I saw it on the car. That looks 10 times better an gets away from those elf looking ears on the side.

I like how it actually gives the mirror its own space. I have never liked the bird mirrors, that hole in the front of em just looks bleh. Good job bro.

THANKS again for all the input and can't believe the views but just trying to be a lil different.Got a few "different" things done to car and people tell me the longer they look the more they find.Getting ready for DETROIT AUTORAMA in march with local club and working on some more stuff,car is built on budget and have to do all stuff myself and understand you can't please everyone so got to please yourself!!!
