Just In Case You Were Wondering....

A brief look at my car.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tajRcDnQXxg I love that sound.....

Looks and sounds great.

Wing/door mirrors?

Sounds great. Whats the story behind the wheels , couldn't quite make them out.

Wing mirrors are BMW M3 replicas which I painted when I did the respray . Wheels are 15" OZ's. Not sure if they are TVR though they are the same pattern as those fitted to an SE...

The car is run from an Edelbrock Carb and is not Efi..hence the E on the boot!

Thought they were M3, how easy to fit, as in same quarter pattern.

Electric?

Mirrors are not electric and are easy to fit - the quarter profile is good though not exact but it works well with the doors shut. If I was an anorak I'd chop them to be exact but really it is not that necesary if you want to change the look. IMO I think they look better than the pods...

I've got M3 wing mirrors on my Tasmin racer also.

Any links to the M3 mirrors which fit? I've tried a few on mine but can't get anything close!

The wheels are a narrower version of the 400/450SE's OZ wheels. I used to have them on one of my old 350i's. I think they are 7" wide from memory (something like that anyway!!)

Go for the universal type and they should be ok. Steer away from any car specific types. The univesal fits ok and if necessary you can re-shape them to make an exact fit. You'll also need to paint them to match your car as they come in a plastic finish...
