How much and what exactly are they? I know they are side mirrors but what's special about them? :)

Nothing really special about them, just a different look from the stock.

Painted and fitted :D Did not realise that the plugs over the screws are chrome, which is a bit of a let down. Will probably get them painted red sometime.

May not be everyones cup of tea but I like em :twisted:

I also think I should probably remove that silly 'Ralliart' sticker above the indicator on the fender

Now part of the ganador club with Val lol

Haven't been on the highway yet but having the wind deflector/rain guards on, seems to adds more noise.
