Technical Characteristics and Purpose

The high-gloss finish in Black Sapphire Metallic 475 is characteristic of Shadow Line and M Sport styling packages, making the mirror a good fit for the dynamic, sporty appearance of the BMW E87 body.

Appearance and Fit for BMW E87 Body

The Black Sapphire Metallic 475 paint ensures consistency with BMW's factory color palette, making it easier to aesthetically replace a damaged part without the need for additional painting (provided the vehicle's color matches). The high-gloss housing accentuates the car's side profile and complements tinted windows and other Shadow Line trim elements.

The mirror is designed for installation in the original mounting points, preserving the factory geometry and the driver's correct field of vision. This makes it a practical solution for both post-accident repairs and replacement of worn-out consumable parts.

Functionality of a Heated Mirror

The heated mirror surface reduces fogging and icing, which is particularly important for daily use in a temperate climate. This function:

• accelerates moisture evaporation from the glass surface,
• improves visibility in rain and during night driving,
• enhances comfort and safety for the driver and passengers.

Thanks to the use of original construction, the mirror integrates with the vehicle's factory electrical systems, facilitating installation and reducing the risk of compatibility issues.

Condition, Origin, and Service Application

This part comes from the BMW offering and is classified as used, making it a sensible choice for post-accident repairs and economical vehicle restoration. Its original origin promotes proper fit with doors, seals, and trim, as well as maintaining the factory body line.

The mirror is suitable as a replacement for a damaged part after a collision, as well as for a gradual visual upgrade of the car to a sportier version, while maintaining compliance with BMW's factory standards.

Selection and Compatibility within the BMW Range

Manufacturer markings and interchangeable numbers assigned to this mirror model facilitate verification of compatibility with specific BMW E87 configurations. Before purchasing, it is advisable to compare the vehicle's equipment (including the presence of heating) and the installation side to ensure full functionality after installation.
