A mirror surface for mounting onto an exterior front fender of a vehicle. The mirror surface is a portion of a convex surface ellipsoid with a plurality of radii of curvature. The mirror provides the driver of the vehicle with a field-of-view that is greater than the reflection angle about the vertical axis. The reflective surface has a generally convex shape throughout. The reflective surface a viewing center point that is in general alignment to the geometric center of the reflective surface. The reflective surface is generally symmetrical about a vertical plane passing through the viewing center point and about a horizontal plane passing through the viewing center point.
