Do not travel out of the city

Edit: I actually kind a like it lolllll

Sweet - that looks AWESOME !!!

Will need to think about the rear vision part though, a good point... Would it be an issue only when the LEDs were on or even when they were off (and during the day) because of the etching?

Etching is indeed solid. Back to you mate. Let us know when you'll had a good look at your rear view mirror and made up your decision.

ps. side mirrors and dead angle (over shoulder) rules for me... rear view mirror is optional for me.... but that is just me. I have the Porsche/crest and it doesn't bother a single bit (in bright red loll). Can't confirm/comment on the solid visuals tho - at your own risk!

I'm around mate, tc (go go Red Sox!)

Think "outlines". That's what I'd go for personally

Some options for you to think of.

Off walking the dogs... passed midnight (their time!), got two huge heads here looking at me like its the end of the world

Tc!

I like the outlines.... looks good and gives better visibility than the solid...
