Might as well take off my rear view mirror after the side mirrors, they block my damn view, who cares about what's behind!!

You should get rid of your headlights as well, they are completely useless most of the time too... until you need them...then you remember why every single car on the road has them. Just like side mirrors...

Good idea! That would give it the flowing look I'm going for.
I usually just squeeze my eyes shut when hitting the gas anyways, and use the force.

I wasn't being serious, it was from a thread that a guy posted about getting smaller cf mirrors to apparently make the car more aerodynamic. Funny responses though
