i personally dont prefer mirrors , keeps more more alert without them , but i since have decided to throw some on and i got them pretty cheap i think under 30 dollars for a pair , they are BOLT ON directly ..... at first i thought they were kinda goofy looking but i gues now they growing on me since i havnt takin them off yet but these were the ones i bought on ebay and a pic of how they look on the bike .. enjoy

If you heat and bend that upper right it'll sleek out the bike a little and do this for your wing mirrors:

Which, I think look freaking ownage especially going down the road. bandana Looks more modern, also.

Yes, I am pic whoring! But it fits in this! :headbang:

Otherwise, look for angled ones?
