89AKurt Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Mirrors are always a challenge to make realistic, as in actually reflecting. Look at glitter, the bigger confetti such as stars, it's clear plastic that is coated on one side like real glass mirror. I don't know how to track down the original manufacturer of that, other than ask the glitter company in China. An aftermarket detail company who can get that in sheets would have a popular product.
