Engine Hatch Mirror Options / Tips

We had the factory acrylic in our Fastech. Personally I like the deeper shine of the #8 polished stainless better. Mounting holes had to be drilled for fender mounts and I felt I had a better shot at getting it right without damaging the stainless versus the acrylic.

Neil (HyFive578) used 18 gauge on his boat and after comparing the gauges the 18 gauge to me was what hit all the checkmarks. It is thin enough to watch the weight but not too thin; to avoid the funhouse mirror issue after install. I felt going any thinner would compromise the solid mirror look, it could be being conservative on my part but the project came out excellent.

Thanks Kelly, you've seen the movie. I'll start another thread about that. Windshield surround is going from white to purple and anything that was original purple is getting re-done because everything was flaking, the windshield hardware looked terrible.
