Someone broke my left mirror during the summer, so I'm in need of a new set. I've got a post up in the WTB for a used set if anyone knows of any avail...http://www.u-ukhbc.co.uk/vbb/showthread.php?3458-L-amp-R-mirrors-WTB&p=20929#post20929

I was curious if anyone has come across any aftermarket mirrors for sale in japan? perhaps aluminum or carbon look?

Let me know,

I looked into the same thing a while ago - I know RSMach and maybe SSI used to sell a kit with racing style mirrors, but i cant find it on their site now. You can buy the black blanking plates from Honda - theyre in the parts manual, then just attach some universal carbon mirrors to that.
hth! :D

Ugly as sin and twice as expensive! I'll scan Japhoo if I have a chance today.

I'm in exactly the same position although I was going to try and fix the original mirror first.

Thanks guys. Sounds like i'm not the only one thinking about mirrors lately.

I was thinking pagani zonda style, or audi-rs style mirrors (aluminum)

Steve, let me know what you find.

Well, the actual plastic of the mirror body has sheared. I've seen that post, very helpful, but the screws have rusted a fair amount and I don't really have the equipment to deal with it here, will have to wait until I get home. It'll need a respray as well, which is irritating.

Does anyone know if any other Honda wing mirrors might fit?

There's a pair of complete doors with mirrors on auction http://page10.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/m106056041

Maybe Jesse Streeter can work something out for you.

Might be the best option. I'll see if I can fix mine first.
