Mirror Project------------------------------------
So fitting in with the theme that Im altering in someway or another every panel of my car,,, New mirrors,,,,
Started yesterday and heres where I am at as of now...
The idea is to reatain the puddle light and mating surfaces so its an easy to do swap, the tricky part will be the internals for the cam/lock system that allows the mirror to be turned back, I may ditch that function since Ive only ever done that once or twice,,,

Dry fitting Shine Sides,,, fitment isnt perfect so Im going to be build mounting brackets for the flanges,,,
Also while I had them on I dry fitted on of my fender vents, it will be glass in when I get to it and the actually outlet is going to repositioned in parallel with the car instead of perpindicularly coming out the side it will now vent the front wheel wells,,,
