ABS maintains its shape under typical temperature variations while providing sufficient rigidity to protect mirror internals. The manufacturing process creates shells that replicate original equipment contours and mounting points, allowing direct replacement without modification to underlying mirror mechanisms or electrical connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize and Practical Fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith separate shell designs for 2006-2008 and 2009-2012 BMW 3 Series E90 models, this product addresses the subtle body shape differences between these production periods. Each shell pair corresponds to specific original equipment part numbers: 51167135098 and 51167135097 for earlier models, 51167205291 and 51167205292 for later models. The packaging dimensions of 27cm by 20cm by 15cm indicate compact shipping, while the 500g weight reflects lightweight plastic construction appropriate for exterior automotive trim applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUses and Placement\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Pair of BMW 3 Series E90 rearview mirror shells in ABS plastic for 2006-2012 model replacement\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US12\/506\/2025-10-02\/original-image\/2ba7e237-059e-4428-bf81-c20df9e2aa1c.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese replacement shells serve both restoration and customisation purposes for BMW 3 Series E90 owners seeking practical mirror housing solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEvent or Professional Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor automotive repair workshops and detailers, these shells offer a streamlined solution when addressing customer mirror housing damage without requiring complete mirror assembly replacement.
