Side Mirror Repair & Replacement in Richmond, VA

Technician installing a new side mirror assembly on a sedan on a rowhouse-lined street

More than a piece of glass

Modern side mirrors are little machines: power adjustment, heating elements, turn-signal repeaters, blind-spot monitoring radar, auto-dimming glass, puddle lamps. That's why the right fix depends on the damage. Cracked glass alone is a quick, inexpensive glass-only swap. A shattered housing or dead motor means replacing the assembly — and we make sure the replacement matches your options and paint code.

Driving without a working driver's side mirror isn't just risky on 95 — a missing or badly damaged mirror can also be flagged at your Virginia state inspection. It's a quick fix; don't put it off.

Side Mirror Repair FAQs

Can you replace just the mirror glass?

Often yes — if the housing, motor, and heater are intact, a glass-only replacement is quick and much cheaper than a full assembly. We’ll tell you honestly which one you need.

Do you paint-match replacement mirror housings?

We source housings pre-painted to your factory color code whenever available; otherwise we can install a primed housing and coordinate paint. Either way, it won’t look like a mismatched patch.
