What do you think of these side mirrors? If I'm buying them, I'll be looking for look-a-likes in a bike shop.

Sorry Goosse not my style :( but I know it is getting very popular. I've been looking at mirrors for months now and found the following two which I think look nice on civics

Those look very strange..Definately not my cup of tea. I think they can look good on the full on race look civics but not on more normal ones.

Sorry, but I don´t like them neither! The silver ones posted by 00`Civic SR and the M3 mirrors are nice for Civics though.

Sorry, don't like them 2, You aren't driving a formula1 car.
M3 style looks good 2 me.
Does anyone know what frontlip that civic has? looks nice to put on my car (if it will fit).

Good eyes! Thanks. Spoon, should be expensive then I think and hard to get. How do you know it will fit my accord, have you seen it before?

Yea, well, I've been looking at a lot of mirrors lately. My other option are the spoon ones, but they are hella expensive. The M3 mirrors are seen everywhere here so I'm sick of them, Bomex to expensive...:confused:

Have you ever seen an Accord with a Civic frontlip? If yes, then it might be possible that you could make this one fit, too. Have a look on www.takakaira.com they should sell it! But maybe you´ll find another nice frontlip for your Accord there.

Well, since I once fit a Accord lip for my Civic without to much trouble, I think it will work the other way to. If you use a Civic lip the sides op the lip are going to be to short, but the curve of the bumper is almost the same.

I'm not going to pay that much for real spoon if I can get a knock-off much cheaper, especialy for a part that isn't that important quality wise.

True, you always have to find a compromise (Thanks G:D) between price and quality.

Where did you get that frontlip and what did it cost and from which accord was it?
There are some car-dumpyards over here, but it's hard to find an accord there (a good mis-interpretation: ' probably a save car' )

I got it from a junk-yard in Lanaken (Alber Ummels). I was searching for a lip like the one on the green FF-squad car. We fit a Prelude lip and a accord lip to my bumper. The curve of the Prelude lip was completely of, but the accord lip seemed to fit fine (only the sides were a bit long). The holes, for attaching the lip to the bumper, didn't fit 100% so I had to drill some new holes.
BTW: I don't have a clue from what year Accord that lip was. Their were a bunch of lips in the shells. We just took the Honda ones out and started fitting them.
