I seriously doubt it being as this is only Feb and the car has been out now for what, about (3 wks). And I haven't seen one in any junk yards yet either.

It's been out a lot longer than three weeks. And I've already seen some on salvage lots.... plus new replacement parts exist. Regardless....that would probably look doofy on a 5th gen.

uhm arent the colors all different? how would you even get a mirror that matches your paint job? and the mirrors on the 09 are bigger than the 5th gen i think so it would look ridiculous imo

MinervaMax, 3 wks come on I was being facetious, (joking), we all know new cars come out in Aug/Sept timeframe of the previous yr. My point was that I thought it would look crazy on a 5th gen.

I understand the english language, but I suppose your response wasn't too facetious that it couldn't get lost in internet translation. Regardless, I side with you here....one can't just go copy / paste any part and expect it to look right. It's a totally different car with a totally different design.

Albi, what is it that you like about the 2009 mirrors? The turn signal?

7th gen max mirrors are to long it would make a 5th look like dumbo altima mirrors might be better but they're a bit thick probably wouldn't look right either. there a thread somewhere of a 6th gen with 7th mirrors and they stick out to far
