Please help me decide!

I need help deciding on a new rear view mirror. The first one is EBAY item number 7947560436 (RED) the second choice is 7947560446 (FROST).

My truck is red and my interior is "Dark Graphite" with Blackwood accents.

Thanks In Advance!

Ken, I think the red look better. The frost is to much of the same look where as the red would stand out and be a great reflection to your red truck. I just think it would look more custom that way.

You still have those tires? I am ready to pick them up and could probably do that at the next meeting if you still have them.

Well the trip was great but I only averaged 11.86 MPG running premium gas in the performance mode going home with the cruise set at around 75mph. I was going to switch to the economy mode and 87 octane on the return trip but the temperature was only 1 degree farenheit the day before I returned and my Roll-N-Lock cover was frozen shut and that was where I locked up my microtuner. I was able to put a clean filter on my AF1 intake but I haven't checked my mileage for the return trip yet.
