Mirror Replacement - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am wanting to replace the dumbo mirrors and was wondering what looks good besides the other smaller factory chrome units.
Any pics would be good.

I saw a '67 this weekend (I know, different year) that had what looked like camaro mirrors. They looked really good! I have also heard that late 80s monte carlo mirrors look good too. However, your vision will be very much diminished.

I bought a set of late 60's Camaro/Nova/Chevelle chrome mirrors. They look good, but I did not take care of them. I have to buy another set now. Not sure exactly where Dyersburg is, but I got my mirrors from White's Classic Car in Blaine.

Here is an old pic, but you can kinda tell how they looked on the truck.

Thanks! Its PPG Candy Apple Red with some metallic and pearl. I am not sure off the top of my head what the code it though. Those wheels have been off for awhile too. They did look pretty good while they were on.

Click on the photos in my signature. I removed the dumbo ears too. Eventually I'll install some Monte Carlo SS mirrors. They are similiar to the C-4 Vette mirrors.
