Default Retro/vintage mirrors?

I'm looking for a set of retro looking mirrors for my slim. Everything the Moco has just isn't really my style. I was looking about the Alloy Art shooter mirrors but 100 bucks per mirror is really hard to swallow. Anyone else have any suggestions?

I got these 4"...to big imo. I searched all over for a 3" same style in matte. No luck. May have to go with ovals.

If you've gotta have black satin & can't find the 3", buy the chrome ones, scuff the shiny with some 600 grit, shoot a coat of rattlecan primer, followed by a coat of rattlecan satin black.

Only the mirrors are flat so you don't see much, I replaced the glass for convex glass. You can find them also on ebay

Hard to tell but the back is copper plated. These are 3". They come larger.
