Default Fake Broadway mirrors

Im looking at buying a Broadway mirror and I read somewhere that there's fake ones, how can I tell if they're real. I want to buy them from this website since there's free shipping and 5% off right now. It says that theyre Napolex broadway mirrors in the URL

What size is yours and how bad is the glare from headlights at night?
Its free shipping and 5% off so I can get them delivered for like 20$. Password JDM charges $15 for shipping and they don't have the blue tint, which im thinking of getting.

It was the larger one. Its like 1.5x larger than stock. I have the blue one. No glare at all and everything feels like its super enhanced.
Pwjdm shipping sucks, I kind of added it on as an after thought

You want the blue if you don't want glare. Got mine on eBay for like 20 shipped, maybe even less (been so long). As far as telling if it's fake, just read the description in full and look for keywords like 'style'

Check the reviews on the website. Also, if you pay through Paypal you have protection. I'm thinking of upgrading mine to a wider mirror. I have a convex blue-tint and its the shiz. I can see behind and all the way around to past where the passenger side mirror can see even at full-angle.

Do you know how many mm wide yours is? And if you can see so far is there any reason you want a even wider one?

Its 30mm wide. It does work well, but if it were a little larger I could see more towards the drivers side. It's nothing essential so thats why I haven't done it yet. Also a 360mm mirror would be huge in this little car but the 30mm looks big too so whatever I guess.
