Re: Need ideas on side mirrors

You know, given the fairly rounded body lines of the truck, I think the 78-85 style Monte Carlo/Cutlass/Regal mirrors would fit nice being the same as the body color. The rounded look of those mirrors would compliment the body lines imo!

Re: Need ideas on side mirrors

There's probably nothing, save ride height, more personal a style choice than mirrors.

I'm not sure where I'll settle. But these (I think, of course) would look good against the yellow. Small and unobtrusive, inexpensive, no holes to drill, and you can see out of 'em.

Re: Need ideas on side mirrors

Beside looking cool (which is subjective) they have to be functional. I had some incorrectly mounted sport looking mirrors that I could not see jack out off.... Switched over to these: They come in black if you are looking for that contrast.
