EMPI x Foose Dune Buggy Side Mirror Mounts – Polished 6061 Billet Aluminum, Late Style (16-8862-7)
Upgrade your buggy's profile with the EMPI x Foose Side Mirror Mounts. This exclusive collaboration between EMPI and legendary automotive designer Chip Foose brings a sleek, custom-car finish to the classic dune buggy. The mounts were developed from Chip's original concept sketches and SolidWorks CAD for a precise, high-end mounting solution built to a "nothing to hide" level of detail.
CNC-machined from a solid block of 6061 T-6 billet aluminum and hand-polished to a mirror shine, they are designed for buggies with extruded aluminum windshield frames and accept "Late Style" Beetle Convertible mirrors. Each pair features the signature Foose Design logo milled directly into the billet.

- Mirror Compatibility: Late-style (1968-later) Beetle convertible mirrors — EMPI 98-8571-B (Left) and 98-8572-B (Right). Mirror heads not included.
