M3 or M5 mirrors
« on: 29 September 2004, 12:53 »
Not sure if this is a good idea or not, has anyone fitted these, i know you can get kits for MK2's but I would like to see some pics of them on a MK2 before I decide.

Does it complement the car or does it look to max powerish?

i really dont like them, at all. nearly every corsa in my town has them on !
the ones i do like, however.. are mercedes stylee ones with the indicators in them, they look quite tidy.

I have small, Pod like DTM mirrors, There small, But give you a suprisingly good view of the road  ;) However if your car hasnt had major body mods, Id recomend just painting your original mirrors  ;)
