Custom Mirror?
Anyone know a local place I can mirror cut?
I just picked up some JDM side mirrors and the magnification is on the opposite side. I need some custome mirror pieces to fix things.

I have JDM mirrors too, but I dont think it is the mag issue. I think the US driver's side does not turn as much as it needs to turn. I think it is a motor issue. But then again, I am not sure if the US non-folding motor is the same as the JDM folding one.

Let me rephrase that (grammar mistakes aside).
I have powered carbon fiber Ganador side view mirrors (plug and play). Although I have slightly less turn radius than the stock ones, the motors work great . The mirror surface is smaller than the stock mirrors so I can't swap and the shapes are assymetrical so I can't swap left to right either.
Drivers side is going to give me a headache if I try and use it for too long.
