m3 mirrors

[tiz1989]

hey i recently put a set of m3 mirrors on to my saxo but wondering whether or not it was a good idea

what do you lot think???

[Qucifer666]

i have them, i think they look ok. but lots of people prefer standard ones with mirror caps. but what you think looks good, stick with.

[tiz1989]

they are ok i suppose but i would much rather have preferred the EVO V1 set

i used to have a set of chrome ones, they were off within a month lol, standards look so much better and you can operate them inside the door instead of using your finger to push the glass lol

that is very true, i do get tired of having to move them with the window down :P

[tiz1989]

yeh but surely once you got them set up you shouldnt have 2 move them

[Qucifer666]

no, but people keep knocking mine, im hated where i live :( lol.

[tiz1989]

oh right i dont get that problem here yet ... touch wood i dont

[Predator_R32]

lol yeah i used to move mine by washing it and people occasionally knocking them in the car parks etc

they suit bmw m3's.

also chances are the baseplates will be a crap fit and imo they look slightly too big for the saxo.

[MMSaxo1]

Could you paint the standard ones or would it look bad?

[Predator_R32]

yes you can paint the standard mirrors mate :y:

i'm thinkin M3 mirrors too, purely because i can't find mirror caps anywhere! dont get DTM's whatever u do... cant see anything out of em... my mate had them, in the end swapped them for M3 chrome ones

[tiz1989]

the ones i got were from www.essexracing.com
it just says that they were black m3 mirrors
only cost me £25 so cant complain really
might swap to the EVO VI set though

[brianS]

scrap yard? citroen?

i bet lots of places will have mirror caps

in fact ebay have mirrors with caps. already primed and ready to go

[tiz1989]

my m3 mirrors fit perfectly
alright not being able to adjust them is a pain but im starting to like them
i might spray them blue though

[Dan]

I say no as they are old and dated now.

[tiz1989]

what mirrors do you recommend then Dan

[danboy]

there did look nice back in the day (how old do i sound ha)

[danboy]

awarkward to look out of.. i have some, the mirror's really are small!

[Richmt11]

I have been lookign at the M3 mirrors for some time, sometimes i love their look sometimesio hate it. But after seeing these Evo VI's i would go for them personally :)
