Purpose and function of the component

The presented mirror cover is dedicated to the BMW F20 and F30 series and constitutes the outer part of the mirror housing on the right side of the vehicle. Its purpose is to protect the internal adjustment mechanism and turn signals (if present in the specific mirror variant), as well as to maintain the aerodynamic line of the body. Thanks to its factory shape and precise profile, it ensures proper fitment to the mirror base, which reduces unwanted vibrations and wind noise while driving.

Color and visual fitment

The Imperial Blue Metallic – A89 color is a distinctive, deep shade of blue used in the BMW range, often found in premium class models. Using an original cover in this color allows for:

• maintaining paint consistency across the entire body,
• avoiding color shade differences typical of unpainted aftermarket replacements,
• aesthetically completing the side line of the vehicle.

For many BMW F20/F30 users, replacing the mirror cover itself is a practical way to restore the attractive appearance of the car after parking scrapes or minor collisions, without the need to interfere with the mirror's mechanics.

Technical characteristics and installation

The cover is a component from the Wing mirrors category, designed as a body part that works with the factory BMW mirror frame and glass. Installation involves correctly seating the housing onto the mirror structure on the right side, using the mounting points provided by the manufacturer. As a result:

• compatibility with the original adjustment mechanism is maintained,
• there is no need for modifications or reshaping,
• replacement time is kept to a minimum while maintaining correct geometry.

The product comes from dismantling, meaning it is a used part, but still functional in terms of construction and assembly, suitable for further use after proper installation.

Benefits of using an original mirror cover

Using an original mirror cover for the BMW F20/F30 offers a number of practical advantages:

• Factory fitment – maintaining the correct shape, lines, and gaps between body elements.
• Color consistency – the Imperial Blue Metallic A89 color is consistent with the manufacturer's palette, making it easier to match with existing paint.
• Protection of the mirror mechanism – the cover protects the interior of the mirror from weather conditions and dirt.
• Economical repair – replacing the housing itself is cheaper than purchasing a complete wing mirror.

Additional tips for selecting parts

When selecting a used mirror cover, it is worth paying attention to the compatibility of the body version, the side of installation, and the paint color. In case of doubts regarding compatibility with a specific vehicle configuration, the manufacturer's markings and reference numbers assigned to this part can be helpful.
