Vandalized..
Walked out this morning and some idiot decided to break my passenger side mirror off. the plastic is busted off and laying on the ground and the glass is broken but still on the car. 
Now I don't know what to do. Either I can go to a dealer and have them paint a new one and install it (insurance will cover it) or I can buy one in my color from a junk yard and install it myself. The reason I would get one from a junkyard would be so the paint would match my car. That's what I'm really worried about - the paint matching. Don't have pics now... but if I can find a camera I might post them.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Re: Vandalized..
Mirrors are ordered with the correct paint color right out of the catalog.
We don't have to send them for painting.

get the insurance money then get a mirror from the junkyard then pocket what's left.
