Since I'm planning on getting body work and a paint job done, I'm going to be looking into replacing my side view mirrors, one side has some good cuts on it. I'd also like to add in some sort of wing or spoiler for it. Any ideas, also looking for decent prices.
This is for a 2001 Subaru Outback.

I have no idea where to look, the only place I know of is www.japanparts.com (http://www.japanparts.com) and they are expensive.

Call the local junk yards and salvage yards.

Tried that once, there isn't jack squat in the San Diego area in the junk yards, I check, hardly any legacys or outbacks in them.
All I'm really looking for is some ideas on aftermarket stuff or OEM.
Have you tried car-part.com?
I just did a search for an 00-04 Wagon spoiler and it pulled up over a dozen results. You might be able to find one in your color.

Thanks for the website that's actually one piece that I'm looking for, good prices too. Actually I've never heard of the site before, so thanks for the link.
So now it's onto aftermarket or good looking OEM side view mirrors, anybody have any ideas for this one?

For side mirrors you have three "easy" options.
1. USDM OEM/factory
2. Ganador from Japan
3. JDM OEM
More expensive option
4. Find any other mirror that you like (F1 style for example) and modify the base to fit your existing one. You may or may not lose your electrics.
It really all depends on how far you want to go.

Option 2-4 sound good.
2. Ganador from Japan (Where can I get these, didn't see on Japanparts.com)
3. JDM OEM (Where can I get these?)

Try:
Andivic
or
96Wagonzilla.
Anything else PM Reason.
...and as for your mirrors:
Most mirrors (not all) are 3 wire systems. You just have to mate the right ones together and it should work.

Looks like most F1 style mirrors are manual anyways, so that doesn't really bother me too much. So I found these:

These also use a convex mirror so you'll have more view to work with.
I think I'll have to make a custom mount plate for these as well, any ideas for material to use?
