Purpose and fitment for BMW 3 Series E92 / E93

The presented mirror has been designed specifically for BMW 3 Series E92 and E93 bodies, with placement on the right side of the vehicle. The construction is compatible with factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and allows for maintaining the original side line of the car. The use of original mirror glass and a housing in Bluewater Metallic color ensures consistency with the remaining body elements.

Features: High Gloss, Power Fold, Auto Dip, heating and memory

The mirror offers a set of features typical for higher BMW equipment versions:

• High Gloss / Shadowline finish – an aesthetic, glossy trim highlighting the side line of the body,
• Power Fold – electric mirror folding from inside the vehicle, useful for parking in narrow spaces,
• Auto Dip – automatic glass tilting during reversing, improving visibility of the curb and rear wheel zone,
• heated glass – faster evaporation and defrosting in winter conditions,
• memory setting integration – cooperation with the driver's seat memory module, enabling automatic mirror position restoration.

Thanks to these features, the mirror not only replicates factory equipment but also supports daily operational convenience and precise maneuvering.

Exterior appearance and Bluewater Metallic color

The mirror housing is finished in Bluewater Metallic – 896, characteristic of the BMW palette. This shade harmoniously blends with the 3 Series body line, and the high gloss emphasizes the dynamic character of the car. The use of original paint minimizes visual differences compared to other body elements, which is particularly important when replacing a single mirror after damage.

Mirror glass characteristics and visibility comfort

The element belongs to the Mirror glass category, which means that the quality of reflection and image stability play a key role. The applied glass is adapted to the specifics of the E92/E93 body, ensuring an appropriate field of view on the passenger side. Combined with the auto-dip function and heating, the mirror supports safe observation of the surroundings both in city traffic and on the road.

Condition, origin and benefits of choosing OEM parts

The mirror is a used element, coming from original BMW production, which translates into proper fitment with the door, electrical compatibility, and predictable behavior in comfort and safety systems. Choosing an original OEM component allows you to limit the risk of problems with electronics, aerodynamic noise, or improper operation of the folding and memory functions.
