Those are way better looking! They have lots of cool stuff. Do they have English speakers if I call them?

[Claus]

No idea, I ordered through their website.

[Snowman]

I have the very same mirrors on my build. Looks like they are available from a different website. A few guys on the board were asking me how to get them as they couldn't seem to get them from the site I used. I guess there's your answer! They are excellent, 1000 times better than the stock tamiya mirrors

Like!

[BRICKNICK]

I wonder if they could be chromed, or if someone on here;) could make them out of aluminum so they could be polished.:D:D:D

[JAMMER]

Scale Art has them for 97.00 Euro or around $81.93 dollars with out the .19 % Vat tax and they are chromed. Ed

Would you happen to have a link to scale art? I can never seem to find there site, just lousy non operational vendors of scale art products not scaleart themselves.

I don't like their website, I can never find the parts I want to find. If I would have known about chromed mirrors I probably would have bought them but their website is horrible.

[Claus]

So much for the mirrors I ordered, got an email they no longer carry them and are refunding my money. They gave me two links for other websites selling them but they are not very English friendly and does not look like these others ship to the states.

[dabears]

That sucks!

[Claus]

I found the ScaleArt mirrors but they are expensive ($128.00 when converted) and not enough info on if they will fit my truck.

[JAMMER]

The Scale Art mirrors are $107.70 with out the Vat tax. Ed

[Claus]

I used this and the price listed on ScaleArt's website.

[JAMMER]

Claus if you log into the Scale Art website and show Us you will get the price with out the Vat tax witch is 81.93 Euro and converted it is $107.693 US. Ed

[Claus]

Thanks, that is a little better but still not sure if they would even fit my truck.

[JAMMER]

In a couple of days I am going to call them and see if they will fit the Tamiya trucks. Ed

[Claus]

ScaleArt also list these, they are cheaper and not as nice looking but still much better than stock.

[JAMMER]

Those mirror brackets are $21.01 Euro or $27.62 US. Ed

[Autocar]

I'd like to have a set of first style mirror brackets I'm still freaked out by ordering from over sea's I guess I'll suffer from missing out on some real nice parts.

[Dreamweaver]

Get me some dimensions of each bar, and some close up pictures and I can make those.

[WhiteWolf McBride]

Dreamy:

Did you end up getting the dimensions? Let us know, ok?

These are a sweet deal for only 36.95 euro plus shipping!!! That's 48.60 USD. A fair deal IMO.

[Claus]

Does anybody sell these mirrors that ships to the U.S. and preferably take PayPal?

[JAMMER]

Claus just to let you know I got 2 set of these mirrors yesterday they do have them at least for Tamiya that what I got. They look great but they did not supple enough nuts so I am changing the bolt and nut t 0-90 that I got from Scale Hardware in Florida and they work just fine and they are stainless. I payed for the mirrors through PAYPAL. Ed

[Claus]

Thanks Ed, where did you buy your at? I think I'm going with Scale Art mirrors instead though.

[JAMMER]

Claus I got them from were SWAGGER said in his post earlier. The 2 set cost me $100.00 dollars shipped. Ed

[Claus]

I tried registering to that website, where you have to chose your country the U.S. is not listed and it says something like we only ship to the countries listed here.

[BRICKNICK]

I also ran into this issue, but it still allowed me to continue registering with out selecting my country. I'm just having a hard time with the webpage being in German, theres no language selection buttons. I just want sweet realistic mirrors, why does it have to be so **** difficult . Why don't one of you German boys email modellbau in Germany and tell them about this forum and get them on here as a vendor IN ENGLISH :rolleyes:lol. I'm sire they would sell more then enough mirrors to just this forum. Even if someone here stateside that speaks German would buy a ton of those mirrors and then tack a few bucks on a set and sell them here. They would do ok also.

[bigford]

I was just wondering that when you registered to the site with the sweet mirror brackets did it let you order them?

Wow they are nice but abit pricey though.now the ones that you found cheaper did you really save money, how much for shipping

[JAMMER]

After buying the mirrors I have decided to make my own out of stainless rod instead of brass. Ed

[Claus]

I bought the Scale Art mirrors and am very happy with them. The antennas are even spring loaded.
