Import a JDM SA, I don't think fender mount mirrors came on US versions. Could be wrong though. I do know the fenders were reinforced under the mirrors. You could move your door mount ones to the fenders, but I think the stalks on our's are shorter than the fender mount ones.

They didnt come on any US spec cars, due to pedestrian crash test results. I have seen the door mount mirrors on the fenders, but they didnt look anywhere near as good as those. Only way to get em is to find someone overseas selling a set.

Heres a few pics of my 7 when it was original and Lambo door less, LOL The rust wouldnt let me keep it the original two tone brown, I took digital pics of my old polaroids so they are not to clear but at least you can see the mirrors and my car at its finest.
