Seems like they just slapped on some LED's for the TLX version and called it a day, the designs otherwise look identical. This has been bothering me for awhile so thought I'd see who else noticed and thinks AHM is lazy/uninspired The original 3G and 4G TL mirrors looked so much cooler and original with their wide yet compact designs (the 3G MMC ended up getting Acura's SUV-sized "corporate" LED mirror at the time, so that doesn't count)....reminiscent of Porsche, Ferrari, and Lambo mirrors




Even the RLX and Accord LX/EX have the same mirrors (except the cheaper Accord's has lanewatch...gasp). Not to mention the Chinese ILX borrowed the 2G TSX mirrors, so this theory isn't completely out of whack

Side mirror look is really important to you.

I see no problem with the mirror look, even if it looks similar to other models. They are not ugly!

I noticed that too... The current US/CA ILX has the same side mirrors as the previous generation Accord.

Mirror shapes are tricky though. I am not sure it's a good or bad thing to use a similar mirror shape over and over. I do know that certain shapes lend themselves to a lot of wind noise.

That said, I did want the mirrors they had on the concept car! A pity they didn't go with that look

and I thought I was being trivial

I wish the turn signals in the mirrors were a little more prominent (nothing crazy like that one year of the C Class) but something more like in my first gen TSX.
