Fender mirrors on a BG Astina

In search of more pointless JDM addons for my car I've found a set of fender mirrors that I reckon would look alright on a BG Astina. What do you guys think?

They're less than $50 including shipping so I thought why not. They are square and blocky, just like the BG Astina. I thought it would be kinda of fun and unique. Sorry to induce vomiting in the rest of you.

From what I have found out, you need fender mirrors that are spring loaded and also electric

I thought about doing this with the wagon, but as the side mirrors are situated within the window frame apposed to on the door skin like earlier models, its too much trouble.

My old BD Familia had the mickey mouse mirrors, TBH they are horrid and the view from them is terrible as they are a long way away.
I almost did the 84 model mirror swap but sold the car instead.
