Purpose and fitment

The mirror cover has been designed specifically for the BMW 3 Series E90/E91 LCI (facelift) models, ensuring a proper fit to the shape of the passenger-side mirror.

Color and finish Le Mans Blau Metallic - 381

The factory color Le Mans Blau Metallic - 381 is a distinctive, dynamic shade of blue with a metallic effect, often found on sportier trim levels. Using original paint in this shade allows you to:

• maintain visual consistency with other body components,
• avoid color tone differences typical of unpainted aftermarket replacements,
• minimize the scope of additional paintwork required after installation.

Technical characteristics and installation

The cover is intended for installation on the right side of the vehicle, replacing the factory mirror housing. The construction, based on the original BMW design, allows for a perfect fit with the mirror glass and base without the need for modifications. The component works with the standard mirror adjustment and folding mechanism, maintaining full system functionality.

Due to its precise fit for the specific generation and body version, the cover is a practical solution when replacing a damaged housing after a collision or during local restoration of the side bodywork.

Condition and service application

The product is in used condition, making it a cost-effective alternative to new parts while maintaining original BMW specifications. This type of cover is suitable for both professional body shops and workshops specializing in BMW 3 Series models, where compliance with factory geometry and color is essential.

Application in repairs and mirror area upgrades

Replacing the mirror housing is important not only for aesthetics but also for protecting the adjustment mechanism and electrical wiring from external factors. A properly fitted cover reduces the risk of moisture and contaminants entering the mirror assembly, which translates into the durability of the entire unit.
