Anyone know where I can buy a panorama mirror for cheap. Our car is huge and I want to avoid black flags for running into people I can see. Thanks for any and all help!
Pep Boys usually has wink mirrors for $20 or so. Best things ever.
Yep, we got our wink at pep-boys. They seem to only stock 1 at a time, so might be hit or miss.
Junkyard:
Stock mirror + 2 aditional mirrors = panorama
Junkyard:
Stock mirror + 2 aditional mirrors = panorama
+ a couple more mounted to the dash + classic chrome door mirrors + at least one pair of classic chrome wing mirrors = impressive to the supreme court
how about 3 rear facing cameras, each on a 5" screen ? 
lol, the custom junkyard multi-mirror sounds good. Maybe I will take the mirror out of the case on a bunch, JB Weld them to a curved piece of sheet metal and, violla! Thanks for the input everyone.
IO Port racing has them for about $20
I got mine for 14.95 on Ebay
$3.99 at the local tool wholesale store.
Eric,
Do you have a photo or a link to the style you have?

Pit now!

That's just the "do your makeup at the traffic light" position.

Our $3.99 mirror is a clip-on mirror that's wider and curved for a panoramic view. We're going to epoxy it in place - provided we can get the mirror a little tighter so it doesn't sag on bumps. I don't have a pic handy, and it's a cheap piece of crap, but if it stays in place, who cares?
i like the Wink 5 panel mirrors over the curvy, convex mirrors which distort the image. i'd imagine you could get used to it though.
dude, my wink mirror fell in my lap 15 minutes in at CMP last fall. Since we had installed the wink mirror, we (read me) decided we no longer needed the side mirrors.
I cant quite explain the shear "excitement" of running CMP, with 120 other cars, wearing a hans device, and no rear vision! After waiving the mirror out the window to alert my team mates that I would be coming in, for 3 laps, I finally made it off the track.
A memorable experience to say the least.
We used an extra 2 convex mirrors: one on the rearview and one on the left side. It was way too many mirrors to check. Keep it simple. Next time around we'll just use one big panoramic rearview
