Paddy Pantani?

Paddy got an earjob this weekend. Craftsquare mirrors, just like MSFITOY!

(Powdercoating bases was a PAIN, outgassed first two times!)

and had plastic surgery to make them smaller)

Do you have a shot from a greater distance? I'd like to see what kind of overall feel they give to the car. :smile:

They look like F1 style mirrors. This is Nick Heidfeld in his Williams/BMW.

They look great! I might be in your neighborhood this coming weekend - I’ve been Jonesing for some SomeCrust sweets and it may be a good weekend for a drive if it‘s not raining!

Funny now when I am parked somewhere. All I worry about are the mirrors. They are well made but seem really easy to mess with. (Either stealing or just susceptible to damage if somebody wants to be malicious). And I do miss the electrical adjustability.

I went through a chain of emails to get them. I have been PM'ed by alot of people regarding these and I have been trying to locate the email address that stared it all out. If I do I will post it here for all to see. I know that craftsquare has it's own site. http://www.craftsquare.co.jp/

Those look great mini d.

I was initially skeptical with the first picture, but looking at them from a distance - they look great.

They definately add to the sporty look.
