EVO-R 370Z Light weight Mirrors

Look at the difference of the pods where they mount to the vehicle. Very different. The mirrors themselves, yeah... They are similar.

They don't look bad... but I'd hate to hear how long it would take to get them.

Reminds me of the Autotechnic ones for the 350z aka Craftsquare replicas.
The base is different then the craftsquare mirrors but the carbon mirror holder and mirror look the same...

I can't see where you would save hardly any weight. Probably loose more weight in your car if you just went on a diet or fast for a few days. That would be more practical and a cheaper mod.

Lots of folks probably like them due to smaller footprint vs weight savings, just saying.

I want this mod because I hate having to look around the bulky stock mirrors. They tend to show a low a lot of vertical space which is not necessary. I have them set as far out as possible to my blind spot and still almost hit a car when switching two lanes because he was really hidden in my blind spot from two lanes away. So this short height, wide-angle, cool looking mirror would be a win win win for me.

Yea, the mirrors on 370Z looks really bulky and big. It also blocks side view for those who seats really low. Y the CF mirror part and all look the same. Cuz they all came from the same factory. Even CS ones are from the same factory. You don't get lots weight reduction like rims does. But they do make your Z look more like a real track car. I'm currently on the testing stage. Want to make sure they don't cause any wind noise inside the car. Also speed over 100MPH the mirrors don't fold in.

Sounds good

Any updates on price? Will the bases be available in flat black? Also, is there an option for black nylon mirrors rather than CF?

I'm fine with either, but just wondering if there were other mirror options.
