The shells are engineered to match the original contours and mounting points for the 2006-2008 and 2009-2012 model years, ensuring a correct fit without modification. Selection requires you to identify your vehicle's precise model year and choose your preferred finish: a standard black or a carbon pattern design. Installation follows a straightforward replacement process, where the existing damaged or faded housing is removed and this new component is fitted. The packaging includes all relevant Original Equipment (OE) part numbers for verification: 51167135098 and 51167135097 for the earlier 06-08 models, and 51167205291 with 51167205292 for the later 09-12 models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFeatures and Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Pair of black ABS plastic rearview mirror shells for BMW 3 Series E90 replacement\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US12\/506\/2025-10-02\/original-image\/124ddcbe-f56f-4c09-8174-c8c1a1283ce5.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis replacement part is built to provide a factory-correct fit and finish for your BMW 3 Series E90.

ABS offers good dimensional stability, helping the part maintain its shape for a secure fit. The finish is applied to match the chosen option—either a solid black or a carbon fibre pattern—providing an OEM-style appearance upon installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSize and Practical Fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe product is packaged as a pair, with one housing for each side of the vehicle. The packaged dimensions are 27 cm in length, 20 cm in width, and 15 cm in height, with a total weight of 500 grams. Critical to fitment is the division between the two BMW E90 facelift periods. The 2006-2008 models and the 2009-2012 models have subtly different mirror housing designs, which is why separate OE part numbers are provided for accurate cross-referencing before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUses and Placement\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Pair of black ABS plastic rearview mirror shells for BMW 3 Series E90 replacement\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US12\/506\/2025-10-02\/original-image\/2ba7e237-059e-4428-bf81-c20df9e2aa1c.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis component serves a specific restorative function for the exterior of compatible BMW vehicles.
