Purpose and fitment

The presented cover is designed for the left side of the vehicle as an outer rear-view mirror cover for the BMW 3 Series E90/E91 generation after the facelift (LCI). The component's construction is consistent with the factory mirror profile, which facilitates installation in place of a damaged or worn cover and ensures proper alignment with the mirror base and glass.

Color and finish

The cover is finished in the factory color Spacegrau Metallic – A52, characteristic of many BMW 3 Series vehicles of this generation. The metallic paint coating ensures visual consistency with the bodywork, reducing the need for additional painting when the car's color is matched correctly. This is a practical solution when replacing a single body component in the mirror area.

Functional characteristics

As a component from the Exterior Mirrors group, the cover serves a protective function for the internal mirror components, shielding the adjustment mechanism and the mirror glass from external factors. The rigid construction of the casing helps maintain mirror stability while driving, and the properly contoured surface supports the aerodynamics of the side of the vehicle.

Condition and benefits of using a used part

The item is offered as a used OEM part, which means it retains the original geometry, mounting points, and material quality consistent with BMW standards. Choosing a used mirror cover is a cost-effective solution while maintaining the factory look and compatibility with the existing mirror.
