Car Show Mirrors

Does any know of a good source for the mirrors used to show the underside of your car at shows?

You can usually have them made / cut, to suit your needs, at most local glass cutters. I have had mirrors and glass tops, for end tables and such, cut at our local source and the cost is very reasonable.

I would lean toward an acrylic "non breakable" version. You can find them at big box lumber yards or amazon in most any size.

That's a really good idea. Less handling...liabilities.

That is a great idea. Thanks. What prompted the question in the first place was some of the framed mirrors I have seen that are slightly tilted to better show the bottom of the car.

That's a normal mirror with off-sized feet.
