Fender mounted wing mirrors
Does anyone know if anything like this exists?
The mirrors not the widebody.

I mean universal Mirrors exist...but I don't think the 86 hood is long or low enough to pull those off.

@chasebays might could tell you about the speedhunters plan for them? Being you stole the pic from there thats where Id start. Theres already a discussion about fender mirrors...some people cant see the fenders from the drivers seat, I personally can see both fenders no problem...the mirrors arent to see behind you, theyre for the side of the cars blind spots your rearview mirror is for behind...3 mirrors to see behind is a bit redundant.

@Chase Bays
I got the picture from a facebook group i frequent, and being it is just a render i thought i'd ask here. I did a search for fender mirrors as well and couldn't find anything so that's why i started this. Contacted speedhunters.

I was playing around with this idea the other day too. Thinking of what the car would look like if you did some retro-styled mods to make it look more like the 2000GT styling. Only real options would be to do fender mounted mirrors and a center exit exhaust. Although I would love a pop-up headlight retro-fit kit. lol

The fender mirrors and a big duck tail look great imo, just a matter of finding something that will work well with the car.

Speedhunters posted some more info about the car.
They also replied to me that they would have more information about the mirrors soon. Link

The thought of cutting out holes in my fenders scares me, but the idea of having old school fender mirrors excites me.
i.e. - weirdest boner.
