Default Side mirror housing crack and fix

Hello, I backed out the garage and my side mirror on my 2023 RX hit the side of the garage and cracked. Here’s a picture. When I went to the dealership, they said it would be $3000 for a whole new mirror panel. Is there a low cost option to fix this? Am I able to just get the

$3000? Your dealer was pulling your leg. The whole side mirror assembly is about $500. Try any reputable Lexus parts site. I bet you could find an assembly at the wrecking yard for half that.

Agree. See if you can find one at a site like this:

https://www.car-part.com/


NOTE that equipment/configuration varies. IE, the ones with cameras for 360-degrees views will undoubtedly be more $$$

Go to an independent shop or a body shop to get quotes on labor.

If the color doesn't match, paint both outside mirrors black, like a 500h.

I was thinking the same thing on the cost for the ones that support the pano view.

$3k seems way high. I have the upper, outer cover in Iridium silver if you need them, replaced mine with black.

Makes more sense with all the electronics in those mirrors these days - turn signal, pano camera lens and then the folding mechanics.
