Some fu@ker hit my mirror

I say fu@ker because they did not have the decency to leave a note.

Anyways, it was while I was parked; I came back to find the assembly folded upwards towards the A pillar, with the cap nowhere in sight. Minor deformation in the housing that I can live with, but I'll need to replace the cap.

Where can I buy one already painted black sparkling metallic? I tried the usual online sources but they only seem to sell them primed but not painted - which sounds like a bother. Used would be fine too but I wouldn't even know where to start ...

Thanks very much for your help

Try eBay? This seller looks like they may have what you need:

Two hundred bucks at the dealership; better than anticipated.

Meh.

$200 for just the cap, or painted?
