Craftsquare Carbon mirrors

Volk Z · 07-20-2017, 07:31 PM

I added a pinstripe to mine. Also covered all the red. So font is carbon and sides and rear are carbon vinyl

Stripe goes good with the seats and pearl white.

Thanks guys. You know pics never do our mods justice. I appreciate the comments

I want these so bad. I found you can get them on https://www.japanparts.com/parts/detail/51444. For tracking is it best to get the extended arm or not?

I believe the extended version locks into place once you set them. Would probably be ideal for the track, especially if people are walking around the vehicle often. It is a pain in the *** to get the passenger side lined up by yourself.

Thanks for the information, but I am a bit confused, found this on site Craft Square TCA-F / TCA-N1 (Touring Competition) Mirror with basic description of the differences.

Quote:

Installation Types

Type F
Mirror Dimensions are 183mm wide and 73mm high
Type F position is 43mm lower and the mirror is further out for good visibility.
F type Mirror has a single attachment point for a cleaner look.

Type N1 (these have a long stem)
Mirror Dimensions are 183mm wide and 73mm high
Type N1 position is 43mm higher, but brings the mirror closer.
N1 mirror has a stem that passes through the mirror case.

OPTIONS

/R-Type
This indicates a racing model option.
This option includes a specific black base and a lockable cap applied to the standard F or N1 mirror to secure the mirrors under intense vibration.

Not a big fan of the stem showing thru the top but at the same time I would figure that setup would push the mirror out farther giving a better angle but I guess it is higher up so maybe not. But I am interpreting the F type has better visibility based upon the info quoted.

Would like to make sure and get R Type option but I don't see it on the two sites. Going to inquire on extra options available.

I hate our dumbo mirrors!

I got them in 4 weeks from order date from rhdJapan. Both the stem style and thethe ones I have now I have owned both versions. Personally I like the no stem look better. Vision wise is the same as both are wide angle mirrors. I locked them in so they are stuck where they are at for life haha.

Took me 25 min to install and 5 min for the pun stripe2 which sets it off I feel.

I have gloss red forgestae wheels on the way ao it will all tie in

Yeah i put painters tape around the area before test fitting.
The doors have 3 screws to take out one if which is by the opening handle thebother 2 are behind a rectangle panel in the cubby area near the bottom.

Super easy to do.

I just ordered a pair of the F type from rhdjapan. I'm so sick of trying to see around the stock mirrors.

CJBinder · 07-24-2017, 06:15 AM

I sent an email to Japanparts site and there is a way to add the extra options like R type add on and 500s mirror type. Just FYI
