Default Parts question - passenger side mirror

Somehow, somewhere the outer back cover of my passenger side (outer) mirror fell off. The interior mirror assembly is now exposed to the elements. Can anyone share advice on where / how to purchase the part needed to replace this missing back cover (color = black)? It appears only to be the cover, all functions of the mirror work fine. It seems like this is a simple DIY job. If I’m wrong please let me know. Thank you for any advice. I really don’t want to take this to a garage for repair.

It should be available, pre-painted, via your local Lexus dealer. Given the variety of different colors, it's normally something your dealer will order. Similar to a missing trailer hitch cover...

It’s only available (thru dealer) as the complete passenger side mirror assembly. That is > $1,200 for the assembly alone, no labor.
I need to find an OEM option.

If it's before 2016 the cover isn't available by itself, but I've read the 2016 & newer LX cover is the same as the GX and available from the dealer.

it’s a 10 - 15 min job. Very very easy I think I posted a video of a guy changing the cover on an RX. The cover can be bought online / ebay / Lexus parts online and etc for less than 100 bucks.

if you can plug your phone into the charger you can do this.
