I love the look of the 1984 Ferrari Testarossa mirrors (yes I know, there was only a drivers side at first) and wondered if anyone has ever added them to their Fiero and if there is a aftermarket knock off that I won't have to take out a second mortgage on the house to pay for?



I would probably rather have them mounted in the same spot as my original mirrors, so an exact replica may not work. It would probably take something that's more horizontal and would be straight out from the door rather than an upward swoop.

It's strange that no aftermarket comany has designed that style of mirror. You either buy the real thing or go with the closest one. I bought these when I was building my car. I made them quick release and they looked pretty nice. Here are a few pics from a few years ago during their trial fit:

Dude, those mirrors don't fold! Never mount any after market mirrors unless they fold. Get the ones that Dave or Exoticse are using.
