Hi Scott

As Glen mentioned the shape needs to be parabolic (usually) and also the bathroom mirror is back silvered /aluminised. You want it front silvered /reflective coated to avoid creating double/multiple images.

As an aside and just thinking out aloud- How bad would a GIANT (think metres) mirror made up of tiny hex front silvered tiles be? It would be good to know the allowable/accepted curvature error in a large ground mirror and extrapolate that to something manageable say 3m or so....

Best
