I removed the 968 CS mirror on the driver's side today and did a quick test fit of the 935/RUF driver's side mirror with double-sided tape. Visibility is decreased as expected, but with some time spent I could get acclimated to it. They are about 1/3 of the weight of the CS mirrors.

I don't know if I like the look or not. Thoughts? Opinions?

I think they might look better in body color, the black may stand out too much.

If I end up ditching them, Icat gets first dibs.

Pardon the filthy car, I've been doing a lot of work on it in the garage lately and it is rather filthy, hasn't been washed in months because it hardly gets driven to get out to get washed......

I think it looks pretty cool, but I don't know if I would like the decreased visibility. My S6 has a "Nemo" passenger side mirror and I wish it were full sized.

Manning

I think they nice. Not quite a bolt on option though since you will have to patch the holes for the original mirror mounts.

Which mirrors does he have dibs on; the RUF or the 968s? I want dibs on the 968s

Flood

Not sure I like them... Then again, I do like the old flags....

Geo

Tifo, where did you find these? I've been debating mirror options for my race car.

jgporsche

I like them. I'd been waiting for you to put them on. If I were in your position I would match the mirrors. But on my car I would keep them black to go with my theme.............. Oh, where can I get some?!

aribop

I would stick with the 968s.

Matt H

Never much liked them.

I like the 968's

I bought them second-hand. There are no markings on them denoting who manufactured them. I have a real 935 mirror here and the mirror and guts look exactly the same, but these are contoured and shaped to fit the 944 door line. They may be made by DP or some other company....

Thanks for the opinions, I appreciate them. Manning, I agree they aren't a simple bolt-on, that's why I am debating about this. Welding up the holes in the door when I have the car painted is an extra expense with a "no turning back now" caveat.

OK, a quick P-chop to make the mirror red and the matching one on the other side....

Matt H

Looks like the ears on a panda

Caw, Caw, Caw,

Sorry, Icat has dibs on the 935 mirrors and Kevin has dibs on the 968 mirrors. Someone beat you to the carcass. (obligatory lame vulture reference ).


So, my car is not cute, endangered, or lovable? LOL.

Matt H

Who would want that bast*rd car anyhow Cute and loveable? I think not!
