Default Side Mirror Repair/Cover Question

All,

Got done washing my Corvette (2016 Stingray 2lt, Corvette Racing Yellow). While pulling it in, I rubbed the passenger side mirror on the garage. I have small scratch about 2 inches long and 1/8 inch wide. I put some touch up paint in it, and it looks better. However, I remember seeing some side view covers and/or skins that go on the side mirrors. Just wondering what covers or skins you all would recommend? Also, any idea what a quick touchup at a paint shop would cost?

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Novistretch makes covers for the side mirrors, most of the forum vendors carry them. Changing the side mirrors is pretty involved, but doable if you're motivated. There were some really sweet APR cf housings in the for sale section at a good price too. I dunno if they're still there though. Good luck!

A bit expensive but check out speedlingerie. They have body color matching mirror covers that do the job and look good.
