I started this quest there about July.
You want a "Custom" mirror - What if you were to take an army surplus decommissioned grenade (available 10 bucks at a gun show) and cut it in half with a band saw/ sawsall, then fashion a mounting stem (this could be from any mirror that bolts on your ride), welded to said half-grenade, then afix the mirror glass to the flat side of said half-grenade, fabricate some sort of trim to cover the edges, and there you go.
Easier said than done, I know, but sounds do-able. This would work maybe if you're wanting black mirrors, but would be an ordeal to get chromed. You would need 2 grenades so that you would have a detonator/handle assembly for each one.

Yes ! Fellow drifter friends you'll be happy to know I will not be pestering about the road house exhaust anymore . Reason being , believe it or not I FINALLY purchased one 
In fact it arrived here to the homestead and will be getting dropped off tomorrow to be ceramic coated . Man I can't believe I finally found one after hunting for the last 2 yrs . HAPPY , HAPPY , HAPPY !
Now being that mission is complete it's on to the next . I've contacted numerous companies with CNC machines about making me a set of custom grenade mirrors with no luck thus far I started this quest there about July . So if anyone has dealt with or can point me in the right direction I sure do appreciate it .
