Mirrors

Well since my truck is getting painted i bought some door skins and they have no holes for any mirror. So this opens it up to getting some different mirrors. What do you guys think i should get for mirrors on this truck? i definately want chrome cause it is a red truck, but black would look cool too. Pass your ideas to the left

The little factory mirrors look good. To bad they suck when it comes to actually seeing things out of them....

Do you have a So Cal shop in your area? The one in Phoenix carried the smaller rectangular ones but for a 61 - 66 chevy. They are a little bit larger than the small factory for the 73-87 c-10 and the arm from the body(door) to the actual mirror is longer giving you a better view of who you flew past, you know one of them blasted f**ds.

dumbo ears not stylish? i think they fit 73-87 Chevys quite well, and are functional to boot.
