Zoom Engineering carbon/kevlar mirror

Just got this in the mail this morning and bolted it in. Quality all around is top-notch and the install is super easy to do. Initial impression is very positive -- the field of view is MUCH wider now, and the blueish tint cuts the glare somewhat compared to the OEM. Only thing is it takes a bit getting used to having such wide field of view, and you maybe need to be a bit more careful backing up if you rely totally on the mirror as things are much closer than it seems (like the passenger side door mirror). Still, very nice piece overall. Talk to AJ Racing, they just got some in I believe.

Not quite -- you can stretch it a bit, but the gap is just a tad too narrow for the arm width. I'm sure with maybe a slight amount of trimming it'd fit decent enough, but not sure it's worth it. The mirror still had about the same amount of vibration with or without it that I could see.
