You mean this hole?

Look like Border or R Magic ones to me.
there not re-amemiya, im sure they have a circular hole going through the fronts?
I thought they were East bear at first but there are differences =/
they are not the re-a one.
re-a ones have holes here and here
vertex or veilside then

exactly, so these arent re-a then are they!!! derrrr
Quote from: D1 WTFexactly, so these arent re-a then are they!!! derrrr
there are different types of rea ones and copies so the hole size and location varies. it could be there but not be seen from that angle.
tell us what they are then smartass
and fix ya damn car
(you would have absolutely loved today i am trying to organise another asap!)

They are not RE-A or any I have ever seen. Not R-Magic as R magic use Ganador mirrors iirc and not Border. Most likely some random make. Look good anyway.
okay cool, i\'ll keep doing some resarch over the weekend, thanks muchly for the response chaps :)
I bud, good choice bouight the same myself. These are definately:
AEROMARKER AERO MIRRORS
Says so on the back of mine ;-)
RE:A are way way diffeent :)
Chris
look similar to the mirrors freddy had on his old panspeed car as well chris.
can you remember that show in glasgow mate?...i was just thinking about that the other day, we were put to the back of the show field so we didnt upstage the rx7 you could win!:rollin
Howdy bud!
Yep they are the same! Tyson has them on his orange RX too from what I recall.
I rember turning up to the show in Scotland (Edinburgh it was!) thinking I had these new unusual mirrors and then find that out of 5 cars two of us had them!!!
Youll have to get yourself an FD bought again mate, so that we can get you back on the show scene ;)

Cheers fella !
I actually just found a tag on the back stating what make they are, I had to scrape all the paint off it first though :D
how are you getting on with ordering stuff from that crescent place John?
has it all been pretty smooth in temrs of service and delivery (i know all about the extra costs etc).
Erm, any idea how to translate Yahoo Auctions Japan ? Is there a plug in or anything?
Ta
Chris
ops..........
Pretty good, be careful on the size of items though, i believe if its over 150cm then there will be excess delivery fee\'s depending on size and weight.
after you win a bid you need to wait for cresent to pay and recieve the item when they do they will prompt you to pay, this includes agent fee\'s and transit fee\'s from seller to agent after they repackage it and then send you another bill for delivery THEN you get snaffed for import TAX when it comes to the country, depending on size, all in all ive ordered 6 items through cresent and ive saved money on each bit, for instance i got a Greddy elbow for about 57 quid including agent fee\'s, Cresent seem pretty decent and the repackaging is well done.
You can translate through google mail translation
hope that helps
