Hi guys as shown in the photos below i have 2 genuine capri bullet mirrors and one which i believed to be a replica (full black one), however after speaking to a few people they think the black one (replica?) may be off a different car all together. It has a cast steel base and metal cone unlike the full plastic originals, it is much better quality than the originals, slightly bigger, is a slightly different shape, and mounts completely differently, which i would find odd for a replica,  any idea if another car had a similar but different mirror to the capri that this one may be off? Or did the capri model their plastic bullet mirrors of that off another car?
Just curious. 
Cheers

I had one of the same. Had polished alloy base. Mine was cracked though. Silly money for these now.

Interesting, wonder why they are of metal construction

Mine was on one door of a very early 1970 XL or Deluxe Capri. I have no idea but might be difference between dealer and factory. Need to check parts catalogue maybe. I would say though you have a few thousand dollars there mate.

Black one looks better if you ask me.

Hmm that is a thought, has no markings or anything so almost impossible to trace its originalty. A few have said the same thing that the black one looks better, and its definitely better quality, so who knows...
Just need a few more early Capris to fit them to, haha.
Cheers
