I'd like to know about folding mirror options or kits as well.

Where can we get the mirrors and arm rest control?

LCI e92 here

When you say M style, are you referring to OEM M3 mirrors? They will work, I have them and they still fold and dim like my original non M3 mirrors. However, if you are looking at replica M3 mirrors, I can't help you there.

If you want ideas for a rear end, here is what I have.

Yea. The main problem people have is M3 mirrors not matching up because of different features. Some have 3 pin connectors and some have 5 pin. My M3 mirrors were 3 pin and fit right up with my original connectors.

Also E90 M3 mirrors only work on E90 335's. So for the E93 you will need E93 M3 mirrors or E92 M3 mirrors. And even those have differences. The E93 M3 mirrors have a matte black housing. The E92 M3 mirrors are shadow gloss black. But either would fit on an E92 or E93.

Isn't shadow gloss the same as matte? Lol

No, matte is dull and gloss is shiny. They are different

A totaled M3. That's the cheapest route. New mirrors go for 1,400 I believe.
