Big mirrors are nice but I think a smaller mirror would be nice as well, as long as u can see the back/side then u should be good imo. As long as the mirror has a curve in it like some of the aftermarket ones, it should be great.

haha funny thread b/c I always thought they were a bit oversized. The IS and Mercedes C has some pretty big side mirrors.

I originally didn't like them, but over time i've gotten used to them. We have little rear window view so I really rely on them (and the back up camera!)

What do u guys/gals think?
Way too big, it is a attempt to fix the way too big blind spot.
IS mirror is twice as big as a Maybach
