I can put the old mirrors back on but would have to deal with the holes I drilled in the door. Not a big deal just not something I really want to do. The TJ mirrors are better looking but worse in every other way (they're manual, old ones were powered; they don't reflect as well; etc) and if it's agreed that they're definitely worse for aerodynamics then I might just have to swap them back out.

BTW I haven't yet but I am definitely covering those exposed holes in the door where the old mirrors were bolted to
