Default new 370Z side mirrors

does anyone know if they are planning on making slimmer side mirrors for the 370? i hate how big they are, and ive almost been hit at a 4 way stop twice at night cause i have to stretch my neck around the damn side mirrors to see sometimes... just wondering if anyone else doesnt like the mirrors or if they know when new ones MIGHT show up.

I totally agree... The mirrors are ridiculously large -- as if they are going to be installed on a city bus! HALF that height would be big enough for a car the size of the Z!

I could not see a full size truck past my mirror the other day and had to jump on the brakes and wave him on. The size does help with rearward visibility for lane changes and birds of prey avoidance but sacrifice front/side visibility. I wonder if there is an affordable camera system for side mirrors?

I know what you guys mean. Cars and people have been hidden behind these mirrors. I'm 5'7 and at my height, it makes for a big blind spot. I've learned to live with it though.
