Depends what kind of style you're after man..

Everyone has different tastes.

I personally prefer OEM as I'm assuming it's for a EG Hatch.

WOTAM IMO. I don't think they lift the appearance of a car anywhere near like a front lip or rims.

got a pair of abs fake spoon one for sale if you want :D then you can see for yourself. personally i think it pretty good~ but again its a personal preference. i prefer the spoon than oem... because carpark is tight and im sick of people bumping into my side mirror.

do you prefer red or blue ?? ...LOL each to his own when it comes to styling.

Personally, I took my car down the Spoon replica path but just kept the stock mirrors because I didnt want to loose the electric adjustment (spoon are manual).

recently though I have seen fakes on eBay that have electric adjustment.. but with all things fake, you get what you pay for and the fitment and quality is probably average :(

im on my l;s and when i started drving i had spoon mirrors which i got use to i guess. its easier for me. i can see the parking lines on the ground and i can also see the cars next to me. i went back to stock mirrors. i could not jsut adjust it to my preference. i couldnt get out of my drive way in 1 go had to do several attemps. so i went back to spoon ones and god made my life easier.

but thats just me man. sit in somesone eg with spoon mirrors and compare the visabilty.
