I think you are being too hard on yourself. Unless you are going for a 100 point show car, the only people that might notice are other E-body owners. Nice job.   :thumbsup:

Honest opinions??

Mirrors look good!  Just a little off horizontally?  No way to change the base with a e-body base?

I was able to take my cable off then replace it with another mirror and cable adjuster, so the base can be taken off I would have tried to switch bases but that is just me.   Minor hole drilling but not too bad. I don't have to adjust mine too often because I keep the screws tight.

I noticed they were a little off horizontally myself, but I was paying close attention to things like that. I don't think its enough to worry about.
I am now in the market for a set of these mirrors.  :thumbsup:

I like them!  I'll be looking for a pair myself!  Anyone ever hear of painted passenger side remote mirrors?
Yes I own a 1972 Dodge Challenger Convertible T/A S/E with a 440 Six Pak. Can it get any more wrong?

I painted my chrome mirrors after sandblasting them, etch priming, then primering.  It works. I took the mirror all apart first though. Look in my resto thread, page 10.

Agreed.  It is one of the reasons I am not on here much anymore. I do remember the mirrors used were the Cordoba style. The angle is different and they sit on a slight lean when on the Challenger.
