M3 mirrors or M3 spoiler
Ive been planning on getting an M3 bumper soon (cause of the accident) and i thought maybe i should get M3 mirrors as well to help complemnt the bumper. I have the stock mirrors on right now and they work fine, but there is a few cracks and chips in em which is really hard to see unless you look at ir really close. The mirrors are basicly factory replicas for $300 CDN. Paint and install will cost more. They would look really good with the bumper
Or instead of the mirrors i could get a replica M3 spoiler for about $250-275 as the guy said plus paint and install. As for wether or not it has the 3rd brakelight i dunno but it doesnt matter to me. But which one would probably compliment the bumper and the car more? The spoiler or the mirrors?

Ah, VTEC. All of the lag, none of the turbo. It's like waiting for bad sex

This is a tough choice. Both have their appeal's. However, a spoiler stands out more then mirrors do.

get the mirrors. when i had my m3 bumper, mirrors and difuser put on it was really the mirrors that i thought made the biggest improvement. they are just so agressive looking. i think the stock mirrors are just too big and bulky. besides, e36's look good without spoilers. get the mirrors first and you will be happy.

I think the spoiler really detracts from the e36's lines, it just looks like an after-thought.

I guess mirrors, but I personally am satisfied with stock mirrors, I just need to repaint one of mine. I would get an m3 spoiler eventually though.
