Fixing cracked housing - 10 Coupe Powered Left Side Mirror

[abexman]

So I was parallel parking on a one way street and my mirror accidentally swiped the neighboring cars mirror. Only damage was to the plastic housing on the driver side mirror. The mirror is fine, the blinker lights still work. Just a chip of plastic out of the housing. Can I just replace the housing? Any instructions on how to do so?

To buy the replacement part, are the side mirrors the same on 2010, 2011 or older coupes if powered with turn signal?

Thanks!

OK newbie here... looks like I can get the entire plastic assembly here"

and then I assume this is the kind of part I then paint white myself, to match my white Coupe? Didn't see how to disassemble this style mirror in the FSMs for the 2010 Altima's (on this site), just showed a non-powered/non-turn signal unit, maybe they are largely the same?

They should be largely the same, save a wiring harness. Mirrors usually aren't TOO bad to disassemble, but you might be better off finding a salvage mirror on Ebay or a junk yard or something.
