Mirrors!!!

[Frank]

Is there someone that could telle me where I could find those or similar mirrors? They look a bit like sebring mirrors. I really their look!

[Frank]

Or mirrors like these?

[vujade]

those look like Porsche Ruf Mirrors that have been adapted to use on a beetle... IMHO

Try www.weissach.com they may have your mirrors. Just go to the RUF section of the website.

[Frank]

Thanks!!
I found them, the exact model!!

[boygenius]

No problem. I should be ordering mine in a few monthes hopefully.




Now to weld up my old mirror hole.:silly:

Right on Brendan, I cant wait to see those wing mirrors you were talking about, they were awesome
I'm still thinking about those mirrors that RUF makes for the 996, I'm waiting on a price quote from the company
Cross your fingers for me

You ought to be sitting down when you read that e-mail.

Those mirrors are going to be big $$$$$.

[vujade]

do you guys know why Ruf changed the mirrors on the 911 to the mirrors in question here....???

the stock 911 mirrors created alot of drag. Ruf was able to get 3 mph more out of the top end of the 911 with these mirrrors. believe or not

[hybrid_john]

REALLY! Thats interesting, what else has been changed to increase top speed?

Frank those mirrors cost $995 USD

save up or get ready for the bill!

Ouch! A bit too much for what I intended to do. I'll probably take sebring mirrors and modify them to get the same look

well the mirrors may look cool but DEFINETELY not worth that much to slap on a bug. appearantly the owners of the bugs in the pics can afford them but not the average enthusiasts trying to save a buck or two. id rather spend $1,000 on the engine or paint. but to each his own if ya got that much pocket change to spare go get them.:silly:

Whoa, whoa, whoa there fellas! Quit thinking Porsche is the only way! The reality is if it has Porsche on it, or it's made for Porsche, it's going to cost you alot! Look at www.lowendesign.com, or www.tuningzubehor.com (type in mirror in the search engine and look at the DTM or Cup style mirrors. Just keep selecting the next page until you get to the good mirrors on the Zubehor site. Power mirrors for under $300.00!) Save money in this game whenever possible! I see alot of goodies for my BMW 325 that look and would perform just like the offerings for Porsche, but because there are more BMW's in the world, the costs are lower.

Hope this helps
