A mirror reflector sub-assembly for an exterior rearview mirror assembly of a vehicle includes a mirror reflective element having a principal reflector portion and an auxiliary reflector portion. The principal reflector portion has a first radius of curvature and the auxiliary reflector portion has a second radius of curvature that is smaller than the first radius of curvature. The mirror reflective element is supported at a side of a mirror back plate and an opposing side of the mirror back plate is adapted for attaching the mirror back plate to a mirror actuator. A heater pad is disposed at a second surface of the glass substrate between the mirror reflective element and the mirror back plate. The mirror reflective element is a fixed reflectance non-electro-optic mirror reflective element and a principal mirror reflector is established at the second surface of the glass substrate at the principal reflector portion.
