Default Soo I had a little surprise when I got home from Canada!

I get home tonight from Canada tonight and my fiancée calmly tells me that she busted my side view mirror lol smh so the mirror is nicely hanging off the car as is the mirror smh

It is a 2012 model with full warranty as is my fiancée so can not replace them lol with that so where would I be able to find one? Or should I just take it my a claim on it? It's on the drivers side

Try Ebay. I am not sure which options you have in your car so I just searched for a fully optioned side mirror complete with camera and side assist. Here's what I found by doing a search:

Here's what's available from the dealers, complete with diagram: Mirrors

I don't know how much is broken and needs replacing for the one you have. I would suggest not letting her drive your car, it sounds like she is either careless or doesn't respect what it is. I know a few couples who have separate cars for that reason.

I don't really have anything much to ad from previous post. I will say in 45 years of driving, never knocked s mirror off! My wife's daughter(45yo) it's almost a given that somethings bad going to happen.
I wouldn't give her a chance to knock the other mirror off, or worse. I'd be less upset her slapping my kid than tearing my car up. Some people are just hard on cars and bad drivers. Daughter in law has wrecked every car she's owned and then some. A few were totaled, including a BMW 750 and Lexus 430. She drives a BMW 650 now that she's gradually junking little by little. Once ran a Z4 over sidewalk and hit a tree.
Don't give your future ex fiancé' a chance to do anymore damage is my advice. These kind of drivers are also hard on front cowlings , rims and tire sidewalls.

Honestly I need the whole mirror like I was saying it is hanging, you can see the inside so I basically need everything, but I can not be mad it happens it could be worse 😐 would it be possible if you could point me in the right direction oolong gray,drivers side no camera but I do have the blind spot option. I'd really like to order it today today.

Thank you guys

Call your insurance co and go to the dealer and have them do the whole job. There may even be some damage to the door, from being ripped off that's not readily detectable.

Depending on what your deductible is and whether or not the door saw damage matters as well. Give these guys a try, they seem to have a lot of parts. Give them a call if they don't have the mirror assembly listed, I'm sure they have one.
