I swapped the side mirrors from a '83 GSL onto my SA after the original broke. They're much more substantial.

Do you have some sort of splitter/airdam on your car, its kinda hard to see from the pics....?

Oh, and the car looks badass.... making my color decision harder (trying to decide whether to go black or white.... ) ...white is the plan for now, though...

Coming from a white FB owner, go with black. With fresh black paint, it looks absolutely untouchable. Then again - white hides more. Tornado Silver is the color I will be going with, I believe (If I ever get rid of my Tornado Silver FB, if not it will stay white.)

And Bronce, you seriously have one hell of a great looking car. From the pics, I am sure that more than half of us wish our cars looked that clean.

If I don't buy another car come first snow, this will be the first year I have to put my FB out in it.

If you must drive the 7 through the snow, I say buy some Blizzak tires. From what I hear, they are the tires to have in snow.

I have enough trouble driving the widebody in the rain with the lsd and 1/2 bp, let alone the snow. I did drive it in the slush one day. That will never happen again. Since the front fenders don't have splash guards, all of the slush piled up and packed in around the hinges. Damn near couldn't get the doors open or out of the car. lol
