Default Drunk people suck. but give me an estimate

hey guys. i was at the wisconsin dells. which is the worst city and state in this country. and some douchebag drunk dude kicked or punched or maybe accidently sat on my mirror. which i didnt see. i was about 30ft. away from my car. then i noticed my key chain went off, so i walked over there and saw my mirror hanging off. it was pitch black outside. and no one was around it.

pics:

snapped the pics with my phone real quick.

but the question is, anyone know how much this will be? its just the plastic that snapped off.
and i unscrewed the bottom pieces to try and figure out how to take the mirror off, but couldnt figure it out. the drive home put some scratches on the car but theyll be easy to buff out.

Being realistic if is comes from NiSSan your going to drop $150.00 at the very least, plus installation.

Maybe they (NiSSan) are thinking you be sexy, and they are going to rape you on the parts - labor. maybe you can find 1 in the junk yard at a decent price

aright enough with the mockinggg. ive had a bad week.

some 16 year old also hit me in a chipotle parking lot while i was eating. already made the insurance claim, and the appraisors came to my house. but taking forever on the estimate.

im gonna get it fixed at our collision center at BMW. so hopefully theyll gimme a break on that plastic peice of the mirror. i was just wondering how much it'd be though.

You'll need the whole mirror and they don't come painted, I would hunt a junk yard.
Btw take the black triangle off on the inside of the car (opposite side of the mirror) and you'll find three 10mm nuts that you will need to unbolt to remove the mirror.
