it is all part of the plan but ever since being laid off a few months ago other things have taken priority. just got a seasonal job recently so we'll see where things go. the car has just been on the backburner waiting... waiting for the economy to get better lolz. that interior is hawt though just what i want except all the silver would be black

so picked up this broadway mirror for the GS from skyyos here on CL. Haven't been able to do big mods lately so I've been busy doing these small mods.

I like things with Japanese on the packaging haha





Reading the English is funny



Where the car has been hibernating



The mirror



Nice wide view



It doesn't cover the whole mirror but that is ok with me.

YES, that boardway mirror, works great and I have it for years. (got it while visiting friends in Japan)
1st on my RX-7, then the 3000GT... and now still on my Camry

I remembered seeing some look a like mirror at local auto store (kmart?) oh boy, you get dizzy after looking at it. BUT NOT the Boardway mirror. Once you have it, you just can't get rip of it

I wish car makers can make the rear view mirror a little bigger

lol yeah you should. i actually just sourced 2 more broadway mirrors and may switch it out with one of those and put this one on my daily. the new ones i got are 300mm and tinted blue.

on a side note i may be doing the switchblade key mod for my family's GX470 so if anyone in ATL wants to split the service fee from the locksmith let me know
