This forum seems to die every once in a while, Hows about we talk about... 350Z's with fender mirrors? I was curious so I crappily shooped some mirrors onto my car's fenders. I think it looks terrible! What do you guys think?

[orangeNblue]

You know you like em...especially if they come in light weight carbon fiber to reduce the weight of the heavy side mirrors...

[dasoupdude]

If they weren't so retro looking i bet they would look pretty good lol

Modern-Metro... Should be carbon fiber

[Ender_Zero]

Haha they look retro because I stole them off an S30. Anyone have a picture of a car with said CF mirrors? I'm willing to try with a different style mirror

I don't know... the look is alright but I really enjoy having the window down and touching the driver side mirror when I hit stop-go traffic.

stop-go traffic

What's that?

One of the things I certainly don't miss since moving from Chicago is traffic. I do miss the wide open expressways in the "empty hours", the man-made canyon that is Clark Street, and cops that didn't worry about speeding as long as you weren't driving like an idiot (there are real criminals to catch).

I traded a 45 minute / 20 mile commute over crappy roads (ask Kuhan about the road condition in Des Plaines, Mt. Prospect & Arlington Heights) for a 60 minute / 65 mile commute through the Blue Ridge Mountains. Hmm...maybe it's time for a new picture thread!

Sorry for the thread jack Ender. The fender mirrors look ok, I think they'd look much better in a more modern Craft Square style. And call me old school, but I like them when the colour matches the rest of the car. Hell, if I had a CF hood I'd end up painting it to match.

Stealthy!

Lets see some commute pics!

Lets see some commute pics!

I might go for a drive today after today's TdF stage is finished. If I do I'll do my commute drive even though I'm not working. I'll start a new thread with some new pics. Hope others will join in. Soup can post some sweet South Beach photos, and while I don't expect the pics to be NSFW I do expect some skin.

The traffic here in Chicago can only get worse. They are currently remodeling Interstate 290, and it's a nightmare. We just have to deal with it because we here in Illinois do need new remodeled roads.

Every time my Z hit a big pothole, my heart skips a few beats.
Luckily, I don't have to DD my Z so it's not too bad.

I was in California, Nevada and Arizona about 2 months for a 2-week vacation, and I was surprised the roads there in Los Angeles weren't that great either.
