Purpose and compatibility for BMW F10 / F11

The presented cover is dedicated to BMW 5 Series F10 and F11 models and has been designed as a structural element of the factory exterior mirror. Its placement on the left side of the body ensures compatibility with the driver's door geometry, and the correct edge profile facilitates installation on the existing mirror housing without the need for modifications.

By maintaining the original mounting geometry, the cover works with factory mirror glass, turn signals, and other mirror assembly components, allowing for a technically correct repair following a collision or mechanical damage.

Sophisto Grey Brilliant Effect 2 – B90 color

The Sophisto Grey Brilliant Effect 2 – B90 color is a distinctive, elegant shade of grey used by BMW, which effectively highlights the side line of the body. Using this color on the mirror cover allows for visual consistency with other body elements, reducing the need for additional painting or color corrections.

The impressive paint finish contributes to the aesthetic appeal of the vehicle after repair, and the properly selected shade minimizes tonal differences visible in daylight and artificial light.

Component characteristics and installation

The mirror cover belongs to the Exterior Mirrors group and serves both protective and aesthetic functions – it secures the internal mirror components against weather conditions while shaping the aerodynamics of the side of the body. The product comes from dismantling, which means it is a used part that retains its factory structural specifications.

For proper installation, it is recommended to:

• verify the compatibility of the shape and mounts with the existing mirror,
• check the surface condition before any potential polishing or paint refreshing,
• carefully seat it on the mirror housing to avoid damaging the clips and edges.

Practical application and benefits of replacement

Replacing a damaged mirror cover with an original Sophisto Grey Brilliant Effect 2 – B90 component allows you to restore the proper appearance of the side of the body without interfering with the mirror's electrical installation. This solution is particularly beneficial for local damage, such as scratches, cracks, or material loss on the cover itself.

By using an original cover, you maintain the factory fit with the door and side window, which translates into proper mirror operation and reduced wind noise while driving. A used part is also a more economical choice compared to a new part, while maintaining compliance with BMW factory specifications.
