\n– Right click at Project window, Create \/ RenderTexture
\n– Rename “New Render Texture” into something else, like “MirrorRT”
\n– Drag & Drop “MirrorRT” into 3D object (preferably some flat object) at scene view (it automatically creates Materials\/folder and “MirrorRT” material there and assigns to the object)
\n– Right click at Hierarchy window, Create \/ Camera
\n– Rename “Camera” into something else, like “CameraMirror”
\n– Position “CameraMirror” into that 3D mirror object and rotate it so it looks toward the mirrored view direction
\n– Make “CameraMirror” the child of 3D mirror object, so that it follows it
\n– Disable [ ] GUILayer and [ ] AudioListener components from “CameraMirror”
\n– Optional: Adjust Clipping Plane Near values for both cameras to 0.01 or so (if your model gets gets clipped near camera)
\n– Select rendertexture file from Project window and Drag & Drop it into “CameraMirror” TargetTexture field
\n– Hit play!<\/p>\n
\n– Select “MirrorRT” from Project window to adjust render texture resolution & settings

\n– I used this free car model : http:\/\/www.turbosquid.com\/FullPreview\/Index.cfm\/ID\/717576<\/a>
\n(had problem with the mirror mesh UV mapping, so made small script to temporarily fix it : PlanarUVMap.cs<\/a>, attach it to the mesh that needs fixing)
