wow that looks great is that the Hyper Black?

Cleaned it, test fit my WRX's old 18x9.5 RPF1s

Only three days old, and a parts list is forming!

Had the door dent repaired via pointless dent repair. Came out awesome. Almost can't see it was there.

Did a fender vent swap and painted the badges.

Got Toms taillights.

He's got mirrors everywhere damn...does not look like he even needs the rexspeed ones lol

But yes, they are curved so that you can see more into your blindspot...which is puny on this car as it is.

Haha, I was going to say something about the other mirrors also. I'm not sure what those other ones are for, looks like they're to see everyone in the car?

I can see one lane over perfectly fine in my mirror but I was thinking about getting a new mirror just so I can see more. Gotta look into this.

There really isn't a blind-spot if you properly set your side mirrors. See http://www.caranddriver.com/features...id-blind-spots

Yup, exactly how I have mine set up. It works perfect and the only time I have a blind spot is if a car is two lanes over and trying to merge into the same lane as me but that's pretty much a given with any car.

I had the interior mirrors prior to installing the curved rexspeed ones. I haven't removed them yet because they still manage to give me a wider view than the rexspeed.

That really is the best guide around, been using that since I started this forum (one of the first posts I read was about how to setup the mirrors).

I am going to pick up a set of these because I primarily drive at night and less glare would be sweet and because of motorcyclists that accidentally hide in the blind spot.

I must be on some kind of crusade to prove that cars are only as slow as you drive them.

Got pulled over for speeding, but only got a fix-it ticket for the side window tints.

What is your tint level? And what is legal in your state?
