dang, it's like EazyD's pulllng down my pants or something. lol

i've mentioned this on other threads and will mention this again. this mirror is great for weekend cars/hobby cars/track cars but i dont recommend it for dailydrivers especially for those that park at stores, etc.

the mirrors' angles are adjusted at the pivot point/joint manually. it comes with a lock nut to either lock down completely (race mode) or partially lock (street mode). if you lock the pivot point all the way and if some fatarse chick bumps it with her michelin-style back or her pallet of donuts or watever, the CF mirror housing could potentially break.

everytime my kids gets out of my G and walks between my two cars in my garage i remind them not to bump their big heads on the mirror cause i have them locked down fully. while craftsquare recommends partial-lock for all street cars the mirror needs adjustment every 300-400miles which is kind of a hassle if you asked me.

those are some of the things to watch out for. it doesn't bother me cause my Z is my weekend car and the benefits outweight the concerns by 1000% so it was all worth it to me. plus the guy at craftsquare was real nice and kept me updated on progress while building my mirrors. these mirrors are handcrafted. the craftsmanship is amazing, btw.
