Another thing, is side mirrors are mostly flat(May be i am wrong here), while in Europe (and often japan) they have curves and edges, that drastically decreases blind zones, so you can drive without shoulder checks.
So tell me a crap regarding safe NA standards.

Not sure if im interpreting this wrong, but I actually agree that NA safety standards are crap LOL.
By the lights, I mean older vehicles that only had crappy halogen lights. I would think the best method to increase light out put would be to use new headlight lens (might not always be DOT stamped but honestly what difference does it make), use a higher output lumens halogen bulb, install projectors and AIM IT PROPERLY.
As for mirrors, on my 2015 Honda Civic, the left mirror's far left edge is actually a convex mirror, decreasing blind spots. Issue is that people in NA are mostly uneducated about how to properly set up their mirrors. Mirrors on my E46 are flat, but euro mirrors are curved.
