Need Opinion on these mirrors

What I'm thinking is removing the Turn Signal Blinker and filling it with some bondo and painting it to match....what do you guys think?

You can find them without the blinker as well. I can't find the link now but I remember seeing them.

Are they solid mount or do they have a breakaway hinge like the OEM?

I don't think I like the blinker, and yes they are solid mount, does anyone have links to other similar type door mirrors? I did a search but only found ganador (<--- I think that's the name) These are pretty inexpensive to try, only $70

There are places to buy mirrors like that that seem to be WAY higher quality than those appear to be.

Spoon, Top Secret, Gandor, etc.......jdm tuners are into cool Carbon fiber mirrors....

Do some searching

Top secret has a nice pair which i am sure are a higher quality than those ebay specials. I think the last thing i read about the topsecret mirror was that its a direct plug in replacement so you still have all the power controls of the mirrors but you will loose the heated function of the mirror.
