I hope you don't plan to pay him full price for this junk? if you order a part for your car, it's assumed it'll fit.

those are ractive m3 style?
i bought a set of those for my 93 hatch i had them about 20 mins and took them back becuase they didnt fit worth ****, they were terrible, now im still searching for a passenger mirror cause thats all i really need for my poor *** dx, also those mirrors are not real carbon fiber they are like a tape, it looks *** in real life, but i hope u can get them to fit well on ur car since its different than mine, just i had a bad experience with them myself
