Red mirrors on my Sonic Gray SI?

[Brooklyncowboy]

Any opinions on getting my mirrors done in red? My SI is doe to come into the dealership at any moment and I am as excited as a kid before Christmas.
Already ordered the type R red badges for the car and my wheels from the dealer. I dont want to go overboard with the look, but I am a little flashy.

The red mirror covers are meh. It’s too Mini Cooper to me and they look out of place, but to each their own. Look at high end sports cars (as an example), and the mirrors are always body color, black, carbon fiber, or sometimes metal. If you want some bling, get the faux carbon fiber mirror covers.

If you like it, do it.

Since you asked for opinion, then...OK.
That would look stupid as SH*T. But it's your car, do what you want.

Leaning into a possible God of War/Kratos theme? That's where my mind went

Yea don't do red mirrors it looked ridiculous on the SGP FL5 they were showing off late last year. Si looks really sharp

Thank you. I was surprised how inexpensive the R red badges were. The seatbelts in red however were $1200. I’m skipping those and putting Katzkin leather.

Let me get this straight, you're putting Type R badges on a non Type R?

I assume he's talking about the red "H" badge which is a pretty common mod. I'm going to agree with everyone else here in that the red mirror caps won't look good. In general only black or CF mirror caps look good on other colors. Even the Silver Audi ones really don't look that great.

I got Red mirror caps on my 22 Civic SI Platinum White Pearl and they look great to me.
