Aftermarket mirrors?
 
So does anyone yet know of a company that has manufactured aftermarket mirrors for the X5's, preferably 2004-05 X5's? And hopefully its a plug n play product, not cutting and or fabricating the parts.

Are you looking for the same style mirrors, or a different look like the M5 or M3 mirrors?

Do you happen to know where to buy them, and how much they run?

I think the normal ones look better, small ones dont suit the x5

i'm not a big fan of aftermarket mirrors. the stock design is usually best. this is why i dont want m5 mirrors on my 540 which is a pretty common mod on those cars.

ya i agree the hamann e36 m3 style mirrors look way to small on the X.

But the Koneigdeser(sp?) look really good even though the fitment close up looks funky, but its okay... I think i talked to them like a year ago bout the mirrors, and they wanted me to send my mirrors in so they can fabricate my base onto their mirrors, and i wasnt down to have a mirror-less car.

so hopefully now they actually have mirrors to ship out

Not sure if the Konigseder comes with auto-folding. You may lose that functionality.

I say keep the OEM mirrors!!!

AlpineMsix 03-06-2007 02:21 AM

id deff want the aftermarket mirrors, if they look good and fit the fitment of the car, then why not, each to his own.

I had e36 m3 mirrors on my e46 330xi and they completely changed the look of the car, it just makes the car look more sporty, and no more elephant ears in my opinion :)

I'm with you. Mirrors totally change the look of a car. But I don't want to spend a grand on a set of mirrors, that still need to painted too.
