About to start work to prepare my AX car for paint. Hate the mirrors I have (see below) but don't want to use stock mirrors. Looking for something a little more streamlined as well as inexpensive. I would do without except I will often drive the car to events. Need to decide before paint so I know what existing holes to fill. Any suggestions, pics?

i've got them "tornado"s, just like on your car and i like the looks of them! TIP 1: when mounting them, turn the base 180 deg. (flip it around), that way they don't stick up in the air like "Z"s bunny ears! TIP 2: if they seem a bit loose on the ball-socket (mirror moves at higher speeds), take the base off and use a screwdriver and small hammer to "chissel" some groves into the ball. the raised aluminum around the edges will give you a much better grip when re-assembled!
