Purpose and fitment for BMW E87

The cover is designed as an external mirror component for the right side of the vehicle, allowing for precise alignment with the mirror base and other mounting components. Thanks to its design, which complies with factory specifications, the correct mirror geometry is maintained, ensuring the driver's proper field of vision.

The Schwarz 2 - 668 color is a dark, universal shade used on BMW bodies that integrates well with both metallic paints and classic finishes. Replacing just the mirror housing is beneficial in situations where the adjustment mechanism and the mirror glass remain functional, and only the outer part of the cover has been damaged.

Technical and visual characteristics

As an item from the Mirror parts category, the housing is responsible for protecting the internal mirror components from external factors such as moisture, dirt, or minor impacts. At the same time, the shape and surface lines are matched to the styling of the BMW E87, allowing for a consistent, factory-original appearance of the side of the vehicle.

The Schwarz 2 - 668 finish facilitates integration with the vehicle's existing paintwork – in many cases, it is possible to use the part without additional painting, depending on the owner's aesthetic requirements. This solution is particularly useful for maintenance repairs, where a quick return of the car to full functionality and maintaining a uniform body line is essential.

Condition of the part and use in repairs

The cover is offered as a used part, which allows for an economical mirror repair while maintaining the original BMW specification. Such components are often chosen for post-accident repairs, localized bodywork corrections, and restoring the vehicle to a near-factory condition after minor parking collisions.

Using an original mirror housing reduces the risk of fitment issues, looseness, or improper adhesion to the mirror base. This is particularly important in daily operation, where the mirror is exposed to frequent folding, temperature changes, and wind resistance when driving at higher speeds.

Benefits of using an original mirror cover

• Factory fit for the BMW E87 mirror assembly on the right side of the vehicle.
• Consistent, dark Schwarz 2 - 668 color, facilitating integration with the body paint.
• Possibility to replace the housing alone without interfering with the adjustment mechanism or the mirror glass.
• Protection of internal mirror components against atmospheric factors and dirt.
• Economical solution for maintenance and post-accident repairs.
