blue tint over side view mirrors

If you look quickly, you can't really tell anything is different.. It's blue but for some reason if you are not driving you don't really notice the blue..It does effectively cut down on the glare of headlights at night but it also makes everything just a tiny bit darker during the day and night.. Both sides are "closer than they appear." This takes some getting used to as it's harder to judge how far a car is away from you now on the driver's side..
Overall, I can say that it does give you more visibility (because of the wide angle) and cuts on the glare but has trade-offs.. I've owned an Audi with factory "euro" mirrors and these are nothing like those..The ones on the Audi seemed to be blue also but auto dimming or something...

I had to bump this thread since I could not locate the Level covers and also sent BAT a PM to see if he ever made these. Anyone have any of those Level blue covers they want to get rid of...

See I live in Los Angeles in a area with about 98% latinos. I noticed that most latinos have a liking to big SUV's with those bulbs that shine right on my mirror so it annoys me to no end....I need those blue tinted convex mirrors
