Sorry I missed the Towers meet a couple of weeks ago, something came up.

Correction: First time on a 2 IS.

I know a guy with a crazy 1IS with those sideview mirrors

He makes about 800 HP.

Oh and they call his car the baby.

he put it out on the forums, so it's pretty much fair game.

hate it or love it, at least someone did it.

now we all know what tiny side mirrors on the 2is looks like.
