no offence, but you aren't the first "fully painted mack daddy cobalt mirrors"

you should check out Rksport sometime...lol

also is he smoothing out the bumpier black stuff around the mirror too? otherwise that may look funny if he doesn't.

Cell Phone Pics

Ok I was in a rush to get to the university for work this morning, but I got the mirrors on and took some lower quality cell phone images. Once I can get to my good digital camera at home around 4pm PST we will have a much better view.

So here we go.







Not the best pic's, but should give ya'll an idea of it. all i can say in full perspective and in person, bling-a-ling. caught a few looks already as the metallic in the blue just shines lol. :-P

I thought u said he was gonna smooth it out and make it so they could no longer fold down? But I still see the seem and everything. Looks like they were just painted.

later

yea well he decided to maintain the breakaway like i had ORIGINALLY asked him to, rather than do what he wanted. So they can still break away, the paint like it tucked in the seam's.

and anyways, it looks ****.

Ok here are some pics with a decently good camera.
