I thought ill show the wing mirror that I bought today for my S1, I know getting an original item is almost impossiable to find so I went to my local motor-cross shop and picked up this one for $22.50. It not 100% correct but is close enough to pass as factory look, just have to paint it black lol.

Very shiny for a black one, but it's in the correct sort of design outside the colour. (Or should that be shade?)

That is very close to the original, bar a few minor details such as the thread on the arm, and the details of the clamp. I also fancy the arm is a little thinner than the original. Not clear from your pictures, but the original is convex.

What you need now is a spray can of etch primer, and a spray can of gloss black, and it will be almost indistinguishable from the original.

Don't spose you have a brand name and Pt No. for we folk that live in the sticks? :)
