So my truck came with the rpo DG4 for the stainless tripod mirrors. They are easy to see out of but, what are they going to look like on a lowered truck?

I have seen trucks my color even with the sport mirrors but they look kind of small and are difficult to see out of. Does anyone have pics of an early square with these tripods and a 4/6 drop?

I’m nearing the point of filling these holes if I want to switch from them and can’t decide.

That's the only style of the "tripod" mirrors I would use on something lowered. Run those or get the dumbo mirrors like most squares had.

Definitely wouldn't recommend the sport mirrors.

I'm definitely a "sport" mirror fan myself.
