Assuming these parts are the same as on the relatively recently released Truescale McLaren M8Bs (or is it M8D?), you can e-mail them and they'll send you replacement parts from their china factory. Just make sure you tell them they're for the TSM version and not GMP.

M8A didn't have a high rear wing, and away from my collection right now, and can't recall whether the rear lip on the GMP version was a separate piece.

Tamiya also made a plastic M8A, you might see if you could pick up one of those kits cheap, and scavenge the mirrors.

Also, look at Legende-Miniatures, that guy has tons of different mirror styles.
