I haven't seen one and a many years ago I had that idea on putting it on our old car. I was thinking of a relay connection then sending the signal through a microcontroller for the motors of the side mirrors to tilt. When tilted, you should see the sides of the car including the tires.

It is a very troublesome idea that I ditched it the following day!

So my barely three-month old BP's left bumper and grille was wrecked by someone from the parking lot. Just had dinner and was surprised to see my new car with a huge dent up front.

Casa estimate is around 175k to replace and repair the whole thing. haha. I guess the only good part about all of this is I'm in contact with the one who damaged my car and he's willing to pay for insurance.

My only worry is can the casa even repaint the bumper (if they're repainting it) with polymetal gray. Last time I asked for a touch up pen for the exact code, they said they didn't have any, and I saw a guy from the Mazda Facebook group have his 3rd gen Soul Red Mazda 3 repainted from the casa - and they could NOT get it right.

Oh well, life

Thank you! Yup, insurance is already on it, just waiting for their final feedback before the go signal.

I hope they can get the color right. I assume the casa (Mazda Makati) will be using one of these two.
