Are commercial restroom mirrors required to be tilted downward by ADA or any other code? I've seen them in public restrooms but I don't see that it's required in ADA. 603.3 only mentions the mounting heights. I would prefer not to do a tilted mirror in my application.

Fj80,
NOT TILT REQUIRED. ICC A117-2009 does not require tilted mirrors, nor does the 2015 IBC Chapter 11.

Tilted mirrors, though not prohibited, are not recommended because they give a distorted image to a person seated in a wheelchair and cannot be used by a standing person.
