Default m3 style side mirrors

Was wondering if anybody here has them.. if ya do, where'd ya get them from? like 'em? how much did ya pay for them? I just hit my right side mirror on another car going down a really small street and figured i might just go ahead and replace the mirrors with the m3 ones.

damn someone did that to my car.. I come home from work.. park my car in front of my house.. all of a sudden i hear a loud *** bang and my alarm goes off.. sum guy drove too close to my car and smacked off the driver door side mirror.. i was like wtf?

anyway I looked into gettin an M3 mirror.. but I figured M3 mirrors belong on M3s.. I got an OEM one for about $200.. the M3 look (powered) ones were around $300 something.. but their made by riceboy companies and I figured the motor wouldnt be as good as the OEM ones... so I got an OEM one..

The REAL M3 mirrors that are motorized are quite expensive. They are actually very good quality. My friend who has an A4 has them. He paid close to $500 for them.

Of course you can go ahead with the nonmotorized/motorized "rice" brands such as Arospeed, OBX, Matrix, APC, etc. I can tell you the quality on those are really bad.

who the hell would go from motorized (stock) to non motorized? hahah I was like hell no.. plus I didn't want to put any APC, Maxspeed, Arospeed, Matrix, Ractive, POSpeed parts on my car.. so I stuck w/ OEM.. plus I don't have an M3 so I opted to get OEM mirrors... yeah I know the REAL M3 mirrors are quality...

nope I went w/ OEM.. I figure BMW m3 mirrors belong on an M3.. and we have one (E36).. so it would look wierd on the teg also... plus i'd rather have the OEM look and power mirrors.. than BMW look and manual or sumthing..

i think of it just like a body kit, if it improves upon the style of the car, why not?(if its good quality)
