Intended Use and Fitment

The presented cover is dedicated to the passenger side mirror of the facelifted (LCI) BMW 3 Series generation E90/E91. The design of the part is prepared for factory mounting points, which ensures precise fitting with the mirror base and other door components. This allows for an organized replacement of the damaged housing, without the need for modifications or adjustments of non-original aftermarket parts.

Technical Characteristics and Color

The cover belongs to the Mirror Glass category, but in practice, it functions as the external mirror housing, protecting the mirror glass and adjustment mechanism from external factors. The applied color Alpinweiss 3 - 300 is a factory BMW paint, which facilitates maintaining a uniform body color without the need for additional painting, provided it matches the vehicle's paint. The element is precisely contoured to the LCI version's body line, contributing to proper aerodynamics and a cohesive vehicle appearance.

Condition of the Part and Advantages of Using a Used Part

The mirror housing cover is a used part, allowing for economical vehicle repair while maintaining original BMW quality. Utilizing a component from disassembly is a cost-effective solution that also helps maintain the factory standard of workmanship. For many users, this represents a sensible compromise between price and quality, especially for post-accident repairs or minor bodywork corrections.

Benefits of Installing an Original BMW Mirror Housing

Installing an original mirror cover on the BMW E90/E91 LCI ensures:

• visual consistency with other body elements,
• correct fitment to the factory mounting points of the right-side mirror,
• maintenance of the mirror's proper geometry and shape,
• protection of the mirror glass and adjustment mechanism from mechanical damage and weather conditions.

This allows the vehicle to retain its original character, and the repair does not diminish the car's usability or aesthetic value.
