As mentioned back in post #3...I’ve been using wide angle/aspherical mirrors since my 1995 525iT and I’ve NEVER had any issues with the authorities (aka cops) or dealerships.

Mostly, cops probably don’t even notice or pay attention to the wide angle mirrors nor that the “warning” is missing from the passenger side mirror...they are probably more focused on their own safety (not getting shot). And since it is not against the law to adhere a small “stick on” aspherical mirror (like the link Walt posted)...it probably doesn’t even register that the mirror is supposed to be plain.
