What is this? (Side view mirror)

As the title states...my mirrors were fine 2 days ago and all of a sudden my mirrors had this strangeness at the bottom. What is it and can it be fixed?

It looks like you have some sort of film overlay on the mirrors? Air bubble?

What the hizzy??? Your side mirrors are tinted. Who did that?

Just peal it off, and put it back to stock, they will be fine.

I thought it was just a certain lens. My sideview mirrors give me much more view of the road than any other vehicle I have driven. Could that be normal for evos? As mine is the only evo 8 in my city so I can't really compare.

Looks like the rexpeed polarized mirrors, I just put some on a few weeks ago, can see so much more, sucks that that's happening to you! hope that doesnt happen to mine >.<. But yeah they are just stuck on with adhesive on the back side.

Yes that is it. Can I just replace or reuse it at all? I like the view it gives me.

Looks like Rexspeed is selling them for $55 a pair, so yes you can replace.

When removing the old one use a blow dryer to soften the old adhesive and be gentle when removing because you might end up breaking or taking off both.
