You can never go wrong with M3 mirrors! I have them on my GTI. So classic.

Closeup of the sport mirrors, which are powered and heated similar to the original ones. The guiding light from the botom is missing though.

Haven't seen a front air dam without side aero flares like you have. I wanted the same but wasn't sure how they would look like without the sides. Could you pls post a side profile pic that shows the difference in ground clearance between the sides and front?

They look flush with the front facia, do they pop up to spray the headlight cover?

How this kind of sloped ellipsoid shaped track is called in english/american?

Btw ran 15.3 for the second time. Had lots of wheelspin but no wheel hop at all. I think I 'll run high 14s with some practice.

I believe we call it a speedway's banked turn.

Great pics, and would love to see those mirrors in person.

I love that Lada in the first track picture :D
What does the window banner say, "Powered by..." Togliatti maybe? :D

By the way, did you install those mirrors yourself? How hard was it?
I'm thinking maybe I could pick up a pair when I'll be at home in June, unless it's too expensive. No idea how much they run for...

Yes, very interested in the mirrors. How much were they? What was the installation like? Interested if we can mount them on our North American cars.

You'll have to become our European middle man.
