Purpose and Fitment

The right mirror cover has been designed as a component that fits the factory mirror construction in BMW 1 Series E81 and E87 models. By preserving the original mounting geometry and shape, the part allows for precise alignment with the mirror base and other door panel elements.

The product comes from the Mirror Components group, meaning it is dedicated for use in the exterior side mirror, without interfering with the electrical system or adjustment mechanics. This is a practical solution in case of damage to the cover itself, while the mirror glass remains functional.

Color and Finish

The Sparkling Graphite Metallic – A22 color is a distinctive metallic graphite shade used in BMW's palette. Using the original paint with this code allows for an aesthetic match with the bodywork without the need for additional painting (provided the car has the same factory color). The metallic structure of the coating ensures a cohesive visual impression with other body panels.

The surface finish is consistent with BMW's factory standard, making it easier to keep the mirror clean and reducing the visibility of minor dirt. This is particularly important in daily use, where mirrors are exposed to weather conditions and road contaminants.

Technical Characteristics and Installation

The cover is designed for the right side of the vehicle, eliminating the risk of error when selecting the part relative to the driver's/passenger's side. The housing construction is prepared for installation in place of the factory part, using the existing mounting points on the mirror.

Key functional features:

• dedicated use in the right side mirror,
• preservation of the factory body line and mirror shape,
• original BMW color, facilitating visual matching,
• possibility of use when replacing a damaged cover without interfering with the mirror mechanism.

This solution is beneficial both technically and economically – only the outer cover is replaced, while the other mirror components are retained.

Condition and Practical Application

The part is used, which in practice means it comes from vehicle dismantling and has been verified for its suitability for further use. For many BMW owners, this is a sensible way to restore full mirror functionality and aesthetics while maintaining a favorable cost level.

The right mirror cover is particularly suitable when:

• mechanical damage to the exterior part of the mirror has occurred (parking scuffs, cracks),
• the part needs replacement after a collision while the mirror glass remains functional,
• there is a need to restore a cohesive body appearance after unprofessional repair or painting.
