Purpose and compatibility

The presented mirror belongs to the Wing Mirrors category and has been designed specifically for BMW 1 Series E87 models with right-hand drive. The power-folding construction provides convenience when maneuvering in tight spaces and protects the mirror while parked. Thanks to the factory geometry of the housing and mounts, the component fits perfectly with the body lines, which facilitates installation and helps maintain the vehicle's original aerodynamics.

Functionality and performance features

The mirror offers a power-folding function, allowing for quick retraction of the housing from inside the vehicle or via the comfort system, depending on the car's configuration. The adjustment technology used allows for precise positioning of the glass, improving visibility in city traffic and on the road. This solution increases safety by reducing blind spots and facilitating observation of the vehicle's surroundings.

The Sparkling Graphite Metallic A22 color allows for an aesthetic match to the factory paint, which is particularly important when replacing a single body component. As a result, there is no need for additional painting after installation, provided the vehicle has the same color code, which reduces repair time and costs.

Construction and visual parameters

The mirror is configured as a component for the right side of the vehicle, with a housing in a metallic graphite shade. The body construction is consistent with the factory BMW design, which translates into stable mounting to the door and proper routing of electrical wiring. The paint finish ensures consistency with the styling line of the 1 Series E87 and blends well with both light and dark body colors.

Condition and service application

The component comes from disassembly and is offered as a used BMW wing mirror, which is a sensible choice for accident repairs, replacing a damaged mirror, or restoring full vehicle functionality after a parking collision. This type of part allows for an economical repair while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications, without the need to use aftermarket replacements with uncertain fitment.

Selection support and configuration expansion

When expanding the body zone, it is worth paying attention to the consistency of elements on both sides of the vehicle – selecting a mirror with the same folding function and color finish allows you to maintain a uniform look for the car. If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the side body zone in your BMW and need other components from the same group, such as right and left mirrors, housings, or complete sets with wiring, check the available parts in the BMW Wing Mirrors category.
