Default Better Mirrors for our Trucks

I have a set of these coming for Hillbilly Deluxe, they are offered in both Tamiya and Wedico.

Those are way better looking! They have lots of cool stuff. Do they have English speakers if I call them?

I have the very same mirrors on my build. Looks like they are available from a different website. A few guys on the board were asking me how to get them as they couldn't seem to get them from the site I used. I guess there's your answer! They are excellent, 1000 times better than the stock tamiya mirrors

I wonder if they could be chromed, or if someone on here could make them out of aluminum so they could be polished.

Would you happen to have a link to scale art? I can never seem to find there site, just lousy non operational vendors of scale art products not scaleart themselves.

I don't like their website, I can never find the parts I want to find. If I would have known about chromed mirrors I probably would have bought them but their website is horrible.

So much for the mirrors I ordered, got an email they no longer carry them and are refunding my money. They gave me two links for other websites selling them but they are not very English friendly and does not look like these others ship to the states.

I found the ScaleArt mirrors but they are expensive ($128.00 when converted) and not enough info on if they will fit my truck.

ScaleArt also list these, they are cheaper and not as nice looking but still much better than stock.
