Purpose and fitment for BMW 3 Series E90 M Sport

The presented mirror belongs to the Wing Mirrors category and has been designed specifically for the BMW 3 Series E90 generation with the M Sport package. Its placement on the right side of the vehicle guarantees compatibility with the factory body geometry, the correct body line, and proper integration with the door mounts.

The original construction ensures:

• proper fitment with doors and seals,
• stable mounting at higher speeds,
• preservation of the factory aerodynamics of the side body section.

High Gloss finish and Carbon Black color

The mirror stands out with its high-gloss finish, characteristic of the Shadow Line, which emphasizes the sporty character of the M Sport version. The Carbon Black Metallic color – marked with paint code 416 – ensures consistency with the original body paint, allowing the component to harmonize with the car's side profile.

This combination of color and gloss is particularly valued by users who expect an aesthetic, factory-original look without the need for additional painting or modifications.

Functionality and comfort of use

The mirror is equipped with a heating function, which significantly improves visibility in difficult weather conditions. The heated working surface reduces fogging and frost accumulation, facilitating safe driving in rain, fog, or at low temperatures.

Key functional advantages:

• efficient moisture removal from the glass surface,
• increased image clarity in the mirror,
• comfortable operation during the autumn and winter season.

Characteristics of the original BMW part

As a BMW brand component, the mirror meets the vehicle manufacturer's quality requirements regarding construction, materials, and electrical compatibility. OEM markings and interchangeable numbers allow for clear identification of the part and selection of the correct component for a specific car configuration.

The used nature of the product means it is a part sourced from dismantling, which allows you to combine original build quality with a more favorable purchase cost compared to a new element. This solution is particularly attractive for accident repairs or restoring a car to its factory state.

Application in repairs and upgrades

The right mirror in Carbon Black Metallic will work well both for standard replacement of a damaged element and for visual modernization of the vehicle to the M Sport specification with a High Gloss finish. Thanks to its factory origin, it minimizes the risk of assembly problems and unwanted differences in paint shade.
