Purpose and fitment for BMW 3 Series E90/E91

The presented mirror is designed as a component dedicated to the BMW 3 Series E90/E91 generation, mounted on the left side of the vehicle. The construction corresponds to the factory BMW solution, which allows for maintaining the car's original side profile, correct adjustment geometry, and compatibility with the vehicle's electrical system.

The driver-side placement ensures a proper field of view in city and highway traffic, while the appropriately selected mirror geometry supports safe lane changing and maneuvering.

Functions: power folding and heating

The mirror is equipped with power folding, which facilitates parking in tight spaces and reduces the risk of mechanical damage while parked. Control is performed from inside the vehicle, without the need for manual intervention in the mirror's position.

The built-in mirror surface heating function improves visibility in rain, snow, and low-temperature conditions. Heating accelerates the evaporation and de-icing of the glass, which translates into a clearer view in the mirror and greater driving comfort during the autumn and winter seasons.

Exterior appearance and Black Sapphire Metallic color

The mirror housing is finished in Black Sapphire Metallic, characteristic of the BMW palette. The metallic black blends well with both dark and lighter body paints, maintaining the car's consistent, elegant character. Thanks to the factory shade, it is possible to aesthetically match vehicles of the same color or prepare the component for potential painting to a different body color.

The shape of the housing was developed with aerodynamics and wind noise reduction in mind, which is important at higher speeds and affects acoustic comfort inside the cabin.

Construction, installation, and application

The mirror belongs to the Wing Mirrors category and is a complete driver-side component, prepared for integration with the vehicle's factory electrical harness. The use of the original BMW construction promotes proper fitment with the doors, seals, and moldings, which reduces the risk of leaks and unwanted vibrations.

The item is used, which makes it an attractive solution for post-accident repairs, replacing a damaged mirror, or restoring the car to a factory-like condition using parts from dismantling.
