Here are some pics the manufacturer sent me of the inside where the original mirrors and indicators attach.

Nope, they don't let you use the stock bar end mirrors.
But you can buy some aftermarket ones and adapt them.
Do they come with a kind of carbon fiber covers for the mirrors? Or do you keep the stock mirrors? And stock brackets?

When I spoke with the manufacturer they said the guards accept all the stock parts and they did offer mirror covers. The go on with double sided tape.

I am concerned if they can stand a low side crash.

The only ones that can stand up to anything is these Ducati Hypermotard 1100 (all models) Racing Handguard Kit (96764708B) | Pro Italia
The stock guards shatter like glass. I dropped my bike on me once and broke the left (pant leg got caught on the damn clutch slave rubber nipple) and glanced a pylon once and broke the right.
