Intended Use and Fitment

The cover is dedicated to BMW F10 and F11 series models and serves as the outer housing for the right mirror. By maintaining the factory shape and dimensions, it ensures proper adhesion to the mirror glass and base, which reduces air noise and improves the stability of the entire mirror assembly while driving.

The component is designed as an OEM part, meaning compliance with factory assembly standards, correct mounting points, and compatibility with original clips and guides within the mirror.

Color and Paint Finish

The factory color Tiefseeblau Metallic - A76 is a distinctive metallic shade used by BMW, allowing for a visually cohesive restoration of the body lines after repair. Using the original paint code facilitates matching the existing coating on the vehicle, minimizing shade differences visible at the junction with the door and pillar.

The metallic paint structure works well with the factory clear coat, promoting even light reflection on the mirror surface and maintaining the aesthetic characteristic of this BMW generation.

Technical Characteristics and Installation

The cover is intended for installation on the right side of the vehicle, replacing the factory mirror housing. The construction is prepared to work with the standard mirror glass, turn signal (if present in the specific configuration), and other supporting elements inside the mirror.

In practice, installation involves transferring the cover onto the existing mirror frame and clipping it into the designated mounting points. Thanks to the preserved original geometry, there is no need to interfere with the door structure or electrical system – only the outer part of the housing is replaced.

Application in Repairs and Renovations

A used mirror cover is a good solution for accident repairs, spot bodywork corrections, and replacing damaged elements after parking scrapes. It allows for cost reduction compared to new components while maintaining original manufacturer specifications.
