Purpose and fitment for BMW E92/E93

The presented mirror belongs to the Wing Mirrors category and is designed for the right side of the BMW 3 Series E92 (coupe) and E93 (convertible) body. The housing design, mounting points, and shape of the mirror glass are consistent with the factory door geometry, which facilitates installation in place of the original part and allows for maintaining proper aerodynamics and image stability in the mirror when driving at higher speeds.

Functions: power folding and heating

The mirror is equipped with a power folding function, which allows the housing to be folded using the controls inside the vehicle. This solution reduces the risk of damage when parking in narrow spaces and makes maneuvering in tight urban areas easier.

The built-in heating system for the mirror glass helps maintain surface clarity in rain, snow, and low temperatures. The properly selected heater power allows for even evaporation of moisture and ice, which improves visibility in the side zone and increases driving safety in difficult weather conditions.

Body finish: Sparkling Graphite Metallic A22 color

The mirror housing is factory-finished in Sparkling Graphite Metallic A22, characteristic of many BMW configurations of this generation. The metallic paint ensures consistency with the body's styling line, and the well-chosen graphite shade blends well with both light and dark body elements. For vehicle owners in this color, this means the possibility of replacing the mirror without the need for additional painting, provided the condition of the paint coating is visually acceptable.

Characteristics of the used component

The offered mirror is a used component, sourced from vehicle dismantling. This means it retains the manufacturer's original specifications regarding construction, geometry, and materials used. In practice, this translates into proper fitment with the door, compatibility with factory electrical harnesses, and correct cooperation with the vehicle's control systems, while reducing costs compared to a new part.

Benefits of using an original BMW mirror

Using an original wing mirror in a BMW E92/E93 provides several significant technical benefits:

• Factory fitment – compatibility with the door line, window shape, and body contours.
• Proper field of view geometry – maintaining the parameters specified by the manufacturer for the right side of the vehicle.
• Electrical compatibility – correct operation of the folding and heating functions with the car's electrical system.
• Visual consistency – Sparkling Graphite Metallic A22 color matched to the factory BMW paint palette.

Selection support and additional information

In case of doubts regarding the compatibility of the mirror with a specific BMW 3 Series E92/E93 equipment version, it is worth verifying the vehicle configuration by VIN or consulting a technical advisor to select the part corresponding to the mirror control system used in the car.
