Midwest is taking preorders now for a February release on their painted side mirrors. I have mine ordered already and they will be $64.95. I could wait for a group buy but I didn't.

I emailed him back to ask about painted prices.

February, huh? That's why I started this thread... for those who wanted them now. But thanks for the comparison.

Oh well. Nevermind. This guy wants WAY too much for them painted. I still might order an unpainted set.
$95.00 + $15.00 freight within the continental US. Paint to match will take about 7-10 working days to complete. Paint to match side window louvers are also now available if interested.
Thank you,
Craig

Turns out the '06 mirror wasn't different; they made the mold based on the passenger side mirror and just mirrored it for the driver's side, but the driver's side it actually a slightly different shape than the passenger side.
This has been cleared up and I have mine installed--on both sides.

$65 shipped for the painted mirrors is very reasonable.
I do alot of painting on various projects and I can tell you that to do it right and mirror the color and quality of a factory finish isnt cheap.
Primer - basecoat - clearcoat + labor + shipping + the part = $65.
Unpainted is $50 shipped, Even if you own the tools and have the expertise, you cant paint them for $15.
If I buy them I will get the unpainted, but i have leftover basecoat and clearcoat from another project.
I just dont know if I like the look on a Redfire or not.

I emailed Midwest and pre-ordered. In it I mentioned I was a TMS member and received a reply that a group buy was probably going to happen so I wouldn't rule out some discount - even so, the $65 is still good IMO.

I agree that's why I didn't wait. 10% is $6.50 and I would rather be at the head of the line. I guess that comes from buying too many concert tickets before they had computers.
