A broken wing mirror is legally required to be repaired or replaced. It might be possible to carry out a car wing mirror replacement at home, but it's often easier to have a professional do it for you. You could book a mobile wing mirror repair if you'd rather have a mechanic come to your location.

A complete wing mirror unit replacement should take less than half an hour. Delivery of the unit is often the most time-consuming aspect of the job, so it may be quicker to go to a main dealer who already has the part in stock, although this will likely cost more than at an independent garage.
Ultimately, the cost is dependent on the extent of the damage. If you have a smashed wing mirror, you will only need to replace the glass, which is cheaper than replacing the whole wing mirror.
