Default My Mirror :(

Sorry i dont have any pics but ill tell you what happened...

I was parking my baby in my friends underground garage and got a call from my ex-girlfriend. Apperantly she sensed that im trying to reverse next to a pole and HAD to call me at that moment. I picked up (still attempting tp park), and while talking to her i didnt pay attention and backed up into the pole with my driver's side mirror I heard a crack hit the break but it was too late. The actall mirror was shattered and the plastic casing is also cracked. I called my mechanic (not a Lexus guy) to ask if he has a replacement for me and he said that he doesnt. My only other option is the dealership and that will burn a $510 hole in my wallet

I was so pissed, i almost went to Home Depot to get a Sledge Hammer and made that pole into dust.
