Hi,
I wouldn't mind some JDM fender mirrors like these on my car!.....

 

i definitely like them on the s30's, but i don't know about the zx. i'm sure they are very functional though. i really wanted to put them on my midget, but i was in too much of a hurry to get it painted to fill the holes on the door.

 

I still think the S30 round bullet fender mirrors look good on a 280ZX

eBay has some generic fender mirrors you can get for roughly $35/pair USD
(edit) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/DATSU...=p4506.c0.m245
They are now $80 pair. Greed increased the price.

genuine Nissan fender mirrors are usually $200-400 a pair

 

Fender mirrors suck. The field of view is VERY small and they're a pain in the azz to adjust, but it does let you see your "blind" spots which is why they were legally mandated in some parts of the world.

 

No like the fender mirrors. Stick with the originals.

Hi,
I believe some were electrically adjustable?

 

Hi,
My problem is that a previous owner has fitted large black door mirrors, which are pretty awful!
I was going to replace them with stock chrome mirrors, but found that the mounting points are completely different and I would therefore have to fill and paint the door tops anyway.

maybe you can plug the holes in the door with little rubber plugs. i like Z31 mirrors, or that style of door mirror. Good visability.

 

Hi,
Saw these on ebay....Don't know how substantial they would be though?



Look ok fitted to the 260z....

 

Fender mirrors vibrate. And they take a while to get used to. BUT, they do look badass.

 

theres only one way to find out now isnt there, buy them and see. drive with them. could always take the wifes makeup mirror and tape it to the fender just to see how you like it and what size you need. 4" round is pretty small when it comes to mirrors.

 

The fender mirrors look like $hit. Were not in Japan.

 

Sorry I was harsh. The fender mirrior take away from the sleek profile. Stick with the side mirroes. I had not noticed your square mirrors on your car until you pointed them out. I'm blind though. Stick with side mirrors. Keep the profile.

 

Hi,
Another option would be to get some more door mirrors that cover the existing mountings.
I saw these chrome ones which appear to have large enough stems and can be mounted at various angles.....



I would change the B post trims to earlier chrome ones as well if I got chrome mirrors.

 

Here's a link to some Japanese S130 Fairlady brochures if anyone likes the JDM look?...

lots of good pictures there. Thanks for posting that link.

 

yeah that's a cool link. i can't believe they let the 2+2 off the drawing board though. i do not like that look.

 

that's made me look for a Z32 2+2 next to a 2+0. anyone know where such a picture is? i've never gotten really familiar with the difference. i searched google for a bit, and couldn't find one.

 

well, they had to have a 4-passenger model. the Japanese think a 2-seater car is 'unsocial'

 

Hi,
I 'm probably biased as I have a 2+2, but I like the lines of the 2+2 model, particularly with the T bar roof, which breaks up the longer roofline.
I need the back seat, as I sometimes need to transport my young daughter in the car as well.
We only got the 2 seater model for a couple of years in the UK and never got the targa roof or later facelifted 2 seater version at all!
