I think those mirrors would look real out of place on an evo. Their design is too round and "bubbly". The Evo has been more of a square design for years as opposed to porsches sleek aerodynamic lines. Perhaps if they were more square in their basic geometry then they would look better.

i was going to get them but after seeing how hideous they flow on the car and how un-proportional they are to the car, i changed my mind

Don't get why mitsu didn't stick with the prototype mirrors, actually im sure it came down to production costs but still, it makes such a huge impact on the overall feel of the car - hopefully they're included in the 2010 refresh:

And the prototype seats...and the headlights...and the foglights. Those fogs are way less restrictive than the ones we got stock. Probably less useful light but still...

headlights and mirrors look sexy. If mitsu made them I would buy them.
