I've spaced my mirrors out 28mm and its made a difference, but remember when you use spacers they don't move out at right angles to the bike, so my 28mm spacers may gain you about 15mm more vision/less elbow. The 24 or 25mm spacers that u can buy may only give you 10mm extra visibility.
Get some longer bolts and use a stack of washers or anything to space them out to see what you think before spending money buying proper made spacers.

Your bike does look good. Went for the Powerbronze iridium double bubble and noticed huge reduction in wind buffeting compared with OE screen, and which again was a 20 minute job (rubber grommets coated with soapy water works). Are the lower plastics OE or aftermarket, as they look the nuts too? Where did you get them from if additions?
