Yellow tinted mirrors

i have the transparent yellow spray can but i dont think i can see through it even if i wetsand and polish it.

i think the next best way is to use yellow window film found at auto tinting shops. however im not too sure whether i can see through them. ill try it out and see how it goes

has anyone done this before?

Are you talking about the side mirrors?

How about using the yellow vinyl transparent film? Most window tints are not made for outside applications.

Why? You aren't even required to have side mirrors by law. When you take your drivers exam you're not even suppose to use them.

did it come like that as OEM mirrors? if not, how did you tint them blue?

i have aftermarket tinted mirrors on my prelude. its a separate mirror that you place over the OEM mirror.

thats funny, here in british columbia you can fail your drivers exam if you dont look at side mirrors. Any time you move out of your lane you have to signal, look at side mirror and shoulder check.
