Intended use and fitment for BMW X5 / X6

The BMW X5 X6 E70 E71 mirror cover is designed as a body component that works with the factory rearview mirror housing. The design is intended for installation at the front of the vehicle, helping to maintain the car's original side profile and properly direct airflow around the mirror.

This component is designed for specific generations of the BMW X5 and X6, ensuring proper fit with the mirror base, seals, and other housing components. This alignment reduces the risk of vibration, unwanted wind noise, and installation issues.

Color and surface finish

The cover is made in black, which allows for easy integration into various body styling configurations - both in vehicles with unpainted external elements and in cars where the cover is a base for possible painting in the body color.

The black finish maintains a neutral, understated appearance while also facilitating any paintwork. Many users find this a practical solution when replacing a damaged mirror cover after a collision or parking lot scrape.

Characteristics of the item used

The mirror cover comes from the aftermarket and is in used condition . This means the item has been previously used but retains the functionality required for continued use. For many BMW owners, this is a sensible choice, reducing repair costs while maintaining the original geometry and compatibility with the factory mirror.

For body parts like mirror covers, a used OEM component often provides a better fit than aftermarket replacements, resulting in a stable fit and proper adhesion to the rest of the housing.

Practical application and installation benefits

Installing this cover is particularly useful in situations where:

• mechanical damage or cracking of the factory mirror cover,
• abrasions and scratches affecting the aesthetics of the vehicle,
• the need to restore the original appearance after bodywork and paintwork repairs.

Replacing the cover allows you to restore a consistent appearance to the side of the body, while also protecting the internal elements of the mirror from external factors such as moisture and road dirt.
