C63 Side Mirrors. I still like the 08-09. Made some observations...
I have been spending a lot of time staring at the side mirrors. I keep thinking something aint right, and I couldn't figure it out. Why do these side mirrors just not look sporty enough, or give the car a moving appearance, or a jetting forward look like other sports cars. Then I realized why I still liked the 08-09 mirrors because if you notice, they are slightly angled up, where the 10-on are just flat and straight across from the sides. They have no upward angle.
This mirror just has no sporty flare or angle...

Notice the slight upward angle on the below mirror.

So I was thinking that if it had an appearance like this it would give it that sporty edge...

Anybody do this or think of doing this??

Wow, that does look good...I wonder if anyone has considered giving the mirror and upward spot with a angle...I still love the carbon fiber...
