Mugen hydrophilic mirror

[Evox787]

I decided to buy this mirrors on my FL5 but on one website have them for 250 odd dollars guess shipping is where is gone to be expensive, but on ebay are doble on price also have 2 different parts numbers. Will attach both to see if because the part number is gone to be for different markets.

I'd get from blackhawk if you aren't opposed to waiting. There are people that sell em in the US but you're getting taxed for faster shipping and item in stock and available right away vs getting it shipped from Japan(Blackhawk)

The one on e-bay is for "FL1" not FL5 - but in reality they're both compatible. the FL1 one is discontinued, but I'm guessing it's cause they're all the same size and usage assuming you have all the mirror features.

Both do the same thing.

I would confirm it’s suitable for LHD as I believe the side mirrors are asymmetric by driver position.

Thanks for the clarification I don’t mind waiting is that was weird that I saw almost double the price for that state side. But thanks a lot for the help!

No problem! Wheels are also cheaper to buy from Japan and shipped here. You're looking around 2k+ for wheels and then 3.2k ish with shipping to US if you don't mind the wait and it's like 4K here. Although the GodSpecc ones aren't available on blackhawk.

If you don't care for Mugen you can go for Suma Performance mirrors those are same Hydrophobic Wide Angle Mirrors with heated and BSI. Although with Hydrophobic layers will need to be reapplied eventually whether you use spray(doesn't last as long) or apply like Gyeons or Gtechniq are my go-to since for me they last a very long time and as long as you wash your car to keep containment off.

They do in fact work. Been running them for 2 years now.

Accurate. Just got my 19x9.5 SW388s on Tuesday after ordering in July.
4x Wheels cost $3,036.00 with 810 shipping. That still cheaper then buying in the states before shipping or tax.

Very nice! They're made to order, correct? Most of that lead time was waiting for manufacture?

Yes, They were manufactured on the 15th of October and I received them on the 30th. Misspoke on the last post. Apologies for the upside down wheel.

Thanks for sharing. I wasn't sure if the 4-6 month wait time was just talk or not.

+1 for blackhawk. I've shopped with them quite frequently. I've always felt my stuff arrived sooner than i anticipated. Also, those mirrors are great I have them on my FK8.

Like someone mentioned above, The ebay set say FL1 but essentially they're the same thing.

Thanks just did the order of the mirrors and also the light that goes on the tailgate. I have a set of mirrors like that in my Evo X and It’s was way better field of view and the lighting did not bother while driving. But blackhawk have a lot of parts for the FL5 and the prices are reasonable.
