Japanese Bullitt and Boss

I found these while searching for the side mirrors that come on the JDM S197s. Pretty cool looking cars.

I was originally thinking of doing the mirrors from the Ford GT, then switched to really liking the Mercedes SLR mirrors to match the original Cervinis sketches of their Eleanor.

As for that Japanese site, yah that was pretty much I could find out, but I dont know Japanese so I dont know what it says.

Pass.

And I'm glad I can't get my GT over here in Japan, too much salt in the air, and the drivers have no respect for your car.

Anybody know if this is a bolt-on deal? I can only (somewhat) read the katakana on some of those pages. (Basically listing specs.) I'm pretty much kanji illiterate . If the swap is easy, this might cause Honda/Acura owners more worry about increased visits from Midnight Autoparts parts warehouse stockers, LOL.

I image this isnt a bolt on peice. Not to mention the wiring needed to make those lights work in the mirrors.

Yes, those are Acura TSX mirrors. This Japanese Bullitt has been well covered in the Bullitt section, where it's appeared twice in threads now.
