Default Spoon Replica Mirrors

Just got the Spoon style mirrors on, and they look way better.....but I cant see shit out of the passenger side one, it is set as high as it can go and all I can see is the ground.... the drivers one is'nt perfect but I can see everything I need too.

Does anybody know if this is common.... I know you get what you pay for... but I could'nt justify $850cdn for real Spoon mirrors!

You probably need to get used to them? I know my M3's took some getting used to.

:wopics:

That sucks, you sure they are mounted right, or mabye they are bent...I have no clue...

O and BTW...MaxBoost...im not flaming...but you can't get 'used to' looking at the ground....

But the passenger side mirror isn't essential for driving...some older cars didn't even come with them standard. So I guess you could just not use it....not that you could in the first place...

Just my $.02...

If they are in fact aimed directly to the ground, obviously there is something wrong.

There is no point in modding to reduce your vision- safety.

I just figured out the problem.... On all cars the passenger mirror is shaped a little different than the drivers... the passenger mirror is angled up a little bit.

These are such a good knock off (sarcasm) that they seem to be designed for Right hand drive.

I will post a pic tommorow... they look really good escpecially beside my friends SiR... which still has the big dumbo flap mirrors (but his work!?!)

oh well!!!
