Question: Terrible stone chip on side view mirror

[Djcrisalli]

OMG, I'm sick. What I thought was bug splatter, was a stone chip. It caused the paint to bubble, about half inch long. Dealer suggest touch up, but I know it will NEVER look good. Do i just get the entire mirror sprayed? I am not familiar with having fiberglass... and my 2013 vert yellow 427 only has 1600 miles! I would love some input from forum members!

Well, stuff happens. I'd say if it bothers you that much get the entire mirror painted. It can be removed and done right without too much hassle.

after you have it repaired make sure you have 3M protective film installed on the mirrors. no matter what you hear here zaino will not prevent rock damage.

Yellow is an easy color ,just have the mirror painted .

Sorry about your chip. I agree with Motorman - 3M
