Characteristics and intended use

The presented mirror belongs to the Wing Mirrors category and has been developed specifically for BMW models with the M Sport package, where both precise fitment and stylistic consistency with the body line are essential. The design is intended for installation on the right side of the vehicle, ensuring a proper field of view and compatibility with factory mounting points.

The High Gloss finish, associated with the Shadowline / Glanzschwarz trim, emphasizes the car's dynamic character and harmonizes well with other M Sport styling elements. As a result, the mirror serves as a functional body component that simultaneously maintains the vehicle's original appearance.

Color finish and aesthetics

The Sparkling Graphite Metallic A22 color is a distinctive metallic graphite shade, frequently found in BMW 3 Series E90 configurations. Applying this paint to the mirror housing allows for consistency with the factory body color, eliminating the need for additional painting when matching it to vehicles with the same color code.

The combination of metallic graphite with glossy High Gloss accents creates a modern, visually understated effect that fits well within the M Sport line. The mirror not only replicates the original look but also helps maintain a uniform stylistic character across the entire side of the body.

Functionality and technical solutions

The mirror has been designed as a comfort-feature component, including heating and power folding functions. Heating the mirror glass helps maintain good visibility in rain, snow, and low-temperature conditions by reducing fogging and icing on the surface.

Power folding allows for convenient mirror retraction from inside the vehicle, which is particularly useful when parking in tight spaces or in urban traffic. Using an original BMW design promotes compatibility with the factory electrical system and ensures proper interaction with the vehicle's control modules.

Vehicle integration and fitment

As a BMW group component, the mirror is intended to operate within the vehicle's factory systems, which facilitates installation and minimizes the need for modifications. The use of original design solutions promotes proper alignment with doors, seals, and side trims, as well as maintaining the correct geometry of the mirror glass adjustment.

The presence of dedicated part numbers and interchangeable numbers facilitates verification of compatibility with a specific BMW E90 M Sport configuration, which is important when selecting a part based on manufacturer catalogs or service documentation.

Condition and service application

The offered item is a used BMW wing mirror, which can be used both as a replacement part following mechanical damage and when restoring the vehicle's original appearance after a collision. Choosing an OEM component of this type allows for the preservation of the factory body line and the appropriate build quality typical of the manufacturer's solutions.

Such a mirror is suitable for professional body and paint shops, services specializing in the BMW brand, as well as individual users who expect the most faithful reproduction of the M Sport configuration while retaining heating and power folding functions.
