Bad luck mate. Public car parts are the worst. At least it was just a mirror which is easily replaced and not a panel like a door or a guard.

Damn! Lucky its only a mirror (all the damage to mine was self inflicted : ) I noticed the other day someone opened their door rather hard into one of my rear doors left a pretty big dent... or it was a trolley, either way :jab:

They do look good, but I reckon the look better on EFs. :

The EA mirrors look good though. The nice rib on the back is sleek and cool.:

But it's up to you mate, whatever works!
