OUCH!!! Sister got my driver's mirror busted....

While backing out of my mom's driveway, she got too close to the house (narrow driveway) and scraped the driver's mirror against the house. The mirror itself did not crack, but the housing lost a small piece. For the moment I will try to bond the missing piece back on, but now I gotta look for a driver's side mirror assy. Anyone know of where I can find one?? Anyone know the difficulty level of replacing the driver's mirror?? Any other options for side mirrors???

You can get a set of LED turn signal covers.

Here's what you do:

A. Beat your sister severely

B. Make sure she offers to pay for the damages

C. Have her do the leg work for the best price, afterall she'll be picking up the tab

D. Repeat step A if B & C aren't accomplished.

E. Have a beer while she cries as she writes a check for the parts.

Problem solved! The lesson? Never let siblings drive your automobile!!

I had a real tough time letting my fiance drive my Maxima today while her car was at the dealer. It's nice out so I'm on the motorcycle. Of course now she doesn't want to give it back (her car -> 2k Focus SE).
