I have been trying to tack down some JDM wing or 'fender' mirrors for my 280zx for ages now - I just like the look.
I kept looking on ebay in the States, got nowhere with Japanese sites and nothing else was coming up until I finally found some via the zclub.nz (thanks to jp280 - aka Jeremy!)
Should have realised early on that North America had door mounted mirrors, so it was going to be a long shot anyway. New Zealand and Australia (as far as I know) got shipped JDM spec cars straight from Japan, so there was going to be the best bet.
They arrived airmail in just over a week.
OK, so they are aren't perfect, but they are pretty damn 'rare', and I use the word sparingly. I have only seen one other pair for sale on ebay in the States and they were already sold.
Here is a pic of what they will look like on the car.
Will be painting them satin black and will keep the door mirror until I get used to them.
And then there is the wiring to get sorted and the control switches to source... it may be some time yet!
