July 30, 2011 - Oops.
Unfortunately, one of my sexy carbon fiber mirrors was the victim of a trailer unloading mishap. I may still be able to repair it, but for the time being this inexpensive motorcycle mirror (originally installed on the Seven fit the same mount. It's unlikely anyone will notice the difference, and it's not as droopy looking as it appears in this picture.
Actually, the mirror is a functional upgrade. I can work around the car for months without bumping one of them, but I learned from experience during the Targa that every night they'll get accidentally realigned several times from spectators and the service crew. The previous mirror had to be removed to be adjusted and tightened up. This one doesn't. It doesn't weigh much more than the sexy carbon part either.
