Not for me, but glad to see you're enjoying your ride. Mods are fun, and as long as they make the owner happy, it's all good.

Reminds me of the back end of a 300 Z.

Don't they create more of a blind spot?

They look great, because
YOU like them. All that matters. Now let the modding fun begin. Once you start, you can't stop.

I agree that it makes it look more like a 300 Z. I guess since I'm a vert girl not a coupe girl, it makes me no difference. It's fun changing the look of your car, though, isn't it? Have fun! And don't worry about flamers. I've been flamed before and it doesn't really scar!

Don't like them but if you do that's all that counts. Once you've started with the mods it gets addictive. Now get to some more serious mods!

Now that you've broken the ice, let's get away from the stick-ons and start working on those performance mods.

First time I have seen them also. I don't think I would like them on my car, but you seem to be happy and that is the key.

Thanks for the question. The rear view mirror view is no impacted at all.
