Wow! It doesn't say on it, "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear"?

Okay, I can buy that, but your stock one is convex if it has that imprint. Appears from posts on other forums that they are $300-400 each, and not easy to get in the US, as they are not DOT approved.

There has to be a way to get someone from Europe to order a bunch of these for us, right? Anyone have any contacts or ideas? Paying $700 is a bit steep.

My wife's car is a Euro spec 320 & the mirrors are great. I haven’t had a problem adjusting the US spec M3's to eliminate blindspots. Just not as easy. Don't think it's worth the expense for me. Unless I can pick 'em up at a junkyard... |

Euro mirror price
If you are willing to give up auto dimming (still heated), which is a pretty small thing, the ECS Tuning price is $200/pair, much better.

Thanks! Since I have tint already, i might be able to do this, $200 cheaper than $700. Wonder if auto dimming elements really warrant an extra $500 premium. I doubt the cost is really a few hundred dollors.

Electrochromic glass is pretty expensive. The type that turns opaque runs about $100/square foot in buildings. This is a different type.

I had the aspheric mirrors on my previous e46M, one of the best purchases ever, I wish US models seen this type of treatment.
I agree, $700 for dimming is a hard pill to swallow.

Euro aspherical mirror glass
Nice, although you could stick on some of theose adhesive bubble mirrors on the outer part of the stock lens! (just kidding) I had my parts guy at Rasmussen BMW check and he says doesn't see any US restriction on ordering them. $290.31 for the left one (didn't have him check the right). So, that's about $120 (incl. shipping) less than ECST. Another nice thing is not stupid warning imprinted on them!

You can check with your dealer just as easily! I'll probably wait to consider this until after I get my wheels.
