Purpose and fitment for BMW 1 Series E81 / E82 / E87

The presented mirror cover has been designed specifically for the BMW 1 Series E81, E82, and E87 generations, for the left side mirror. The component's design matches factory dimensions and mounting points, allowing for installation in place of the original cover without the need for modifications. This solution helps maintain visual consistency of the bodywork and the correct geometry of the mirror.

Bluewater Metallic color – consistency with body paint

The cover is finished in the Bluewater Metallic – 896 shade, characteristic of selected BMW paint configurations. Thanks to this, with a correctly matched body color, it is possible to reduce or completely eliminate the need for additional paint work. The metallic coating ensures uniform light reflection and an aesthetic match to the remaining body panels.

Component characteristics and installation

The mirror cover is intended for installation on the left side of the vehicle, in place of the factory cover. The design is based on the standard BMW solution, which facilitates:

• maintaining the correct shape and aerodynamics of the mirror,
• proper fitment with the mirror base and glass insert,
• stable mounting on the clips provided by the manufacturer.

The element should be treated as a body part from the Exterior Mirrors group, responsible for protecting the mirror mechanism and the final appearance of the vehicle's side zone.

Used condition and service application

The mirror cover is offered as a used part, making it a practical solution for post-accident repairs, replacing a damaged cover, or restoring the vehicle to a factory-like condition. Choosing an original, used cover often allows for a better fit than non-original replacements, while maintaining a favorable cost-to-visual-effect ratio.
