Default mirror under 20.00 doors off

Put this together from Ideas from this forum and others.

Left allthread long so I can move it up higher and see how I like it. Then I will cut it.
I had it up to 75 mph no vibration or noise. See every thing great and no blind spot.

I got the 8.5 from www .innerauto.com. It did come with the L bracket attached. Nuts washers and piece of allthread. I am going to cut off the thread and paint it all black soon.

The smaller mirrors I got from krogers for .99

I got some Harley mirrors yesterday and I cracked some paint when tightening the acorn nut. Iv got plenty of touch up paint, so it's not a big deal, bit what did you do to make it fit better? 1/4"" washer maybe?
