So, Thinking of the 300-400 buck option of the 968 style mirrors, and wondering if there is another option!

Then looking at some mirrors on ebay..

It got me thinking...

Cut off the part that the main body of the mirror is "attached" to... IE the two supports that the mirror has.

Then mold, or fiberglass the mirror directly onto the body of the 914.... so that its very flush and smooth. No sticking out or ricy looks to it. Just a simple, clean, cheap design...


I think its duable! I kinda want to try it!

What do you guys think?
