Blue side mirrors?

I was wondering which European or Asian countries drive left hand Accords and have blue side mirrors? I am really interested in getting the blue tint windows for my car just like the Euro R. I think Russia might have them? Any help would be appreciated.

I have no idea about which do and which dont but I hope we can figure this out as I would also be interested in getting this.

you can get the spoon mirror as stated above but i believe they are a bit pricey.

also, does it matter if the car is LHD or RHD?

Would you still be able to use the heated mirrors feature after you do that? Also, I'd be concerned about the optical clarity of that stuff..... I actually like the blue tint on the mirrors. My dad's got an 05 TL, and the mirrors give you a really nice crisp image (usually clearer)....but, it makes everyone behind you look like they have Xenon headlights )

Forgot you had an 04.....but I'd wonder what would happen if you did have heated mirrors? Hmmmm....

Would blue window tint work? Or would it scratch too easily?

that would work probably but you couldnt get any amonia on it cause it would turn purple then so basically you would have to cover your mirrors everytime you washed your car since most generic soaps hava amonia in them.

Cool

Foliatec has a lotta crazy tint stuff. They're a .de but have retailers all over the world. I'm still thinking of getting their tint stuff. Imagine, having limo style tint. Can't see shit from outside looking in but inside looking out is like daylight!

http://www.foliatec.de

You'll be able to find the tint stuff you're looking for there, fer sure!
