So, I was greeted today with my 330’s driver wingmirror on the floor, completely ripped off and some new dents and scratches to go with it. There’s no saving the wingmirror, the plastic has cracked and smashed and the wiring has been ripped apart. The joys of living near a town centre full of disrespectful morons with no CCTV.

Anyway, I’m trying my hardest to source a wingmirror on the driver’s side in mystic blue. It’s the facelift version and my car is an E46 on a 2003 plate. It is surprisingly difficult to find one for under £100!

Anyone have any suggestions or good sites/ contacts? I’m based in Kent.

I did consider buying two pre-facelift mirrors and replace both sides. Would this work/ fit? Thinking about it, I’m sure this wouldn’t work due to mystic blue coming around at the same time as the facelift mirrors? Can anyone confirm this?

I would just stick on a different shade of blue (topaz), but would this stand out?

I have someone lined up to buy this car. Bleeding typical, eh.

Thanks in advance,
Luke

Thanks for the reply. How noticeable would the difference be do you reckon?

Also, how much? I’m assuming they’re the facelift ones?

Cheers.
