Passinger side mirror repair

Ready to race!
When I was backing out of the carport, I didn't realize I was so close to the right side pillar and it knocked the passenger mirror off. Has anyone had this happen and if so, do you know what it might cost to repair it?

I'm curious if I will have to buy the entire assembly rather than the couple of parts that were damaged. The mirror is completely in tact as is the white colored housing. The black piece that fits underneath with the directional lens was damaged and broke off. Obviously this is a job for the body shop rather than my technician..or is it? Thanks for any tips or advice.

Buy a new mirror assembly (new or used) and swap it out....it's pretty simple actually

Thanks..found the exact part I needed and am having it installed tomorrow. It's not simple though since the door panel and other parts have to be removed. I appreciate the reply though.

The door panel just pops off...it's relatively "easy"

And then a few nuts or bolts should hold the mirror on
