E9x Custom mirror project
When I first saw the E92 M3 I liked it, but not as much as I liked the E46 M3 back when that first came out. Large part of me felt the E92 M3 was over styled, but it grew on me quickly. Still had a few reservations regarding the mirrors though... didn't like the upper stalk that heads all the way back to the a-pillar, looked Ganador-inspired.
I felt the lower part of the mirror cover had too much 'fat' making the making the mirror look dumbo-earish, slightly oversized IMO.
Goal is to lean it all out...
2 months into the project is when they began to resemble the idea I had in my head.
These are plug moulds, built up with resin based materials and then shaved into the desired shape using a range of abrasives...
A time consuming process and they're still far from complete...
Thoughts/feedback/suggestions welcome.
Will add pics as I get more work done
Appreciate
