Dammit guys, i think my car got swiped and my mirror broke off, not the whole thing, just the plastic casing.

The frame is a little cracked up.

Is this something my insurance would take care of?

If not, whats a dealership side mirror w/paint gonna run?

Thanks

Seeing that you have the 2.5 I'm thinking under $200 not including the price to color match. IF you had the 3.5, the turn signal indicator is like $180 + the cost of the mirror. To bad Domdado had his car pulled from insurance. I wold have hit him up for the side mirrors Good Luck man

Do not buy from dealership. They're going to charge you at least $325 per side.

Buy it online and get the mirror cover paint at a local shop. Shouldn't cost your more than $160 with everything.

I forgot the online website that sells Nissan parts...maybe someone can chime it.

Infiniti Parts sells the mirror cover for the 2.5 for $17.36, the assembly is $140.49. This would be a good time for you to do a mirror swap.

Yea I think the mirror cover will be enough, the frame is a little cracked but I think it should be alright for now.

Thanks

if it was me i would just go to the dealer and pay my $50 deductible and have them put all new parts on it and call it a day. $50 bucks is less than a tank of gas so its not really a bid deal.

You still pay $50 for gas? That blows...I get a full tank of premium for like $35...
