  Eh, happens to everyone. This past Christmas we had just put up Christmas lights on the house and as I was looking to make sure they were even as I backed out of our 150 ft winding driveway right into the one lone tree that stuck furthest out. It nipped the quarter and bumper end. Total damage? $3800. No airbag deployment, but it buckled the quarter pretty badly. Ugh, that sucked, but life goes on.

  Luckily, its an American car, so it's probably something that a few screws and < 1 hr worth of time that any Joe could do. If it were a German car, the entire car would have to be disassembled to get to the $150 part (that has to be shipped from German) that has to be replaced.

  Driving is more fun using the Braille method!
  
  Seriously, I hope the lens is a separate part...might be.

  My first reaction was how the heck did you not notice the mirror was pulled out. Then I thought about it and realized unlike the rest of us you don't drive the same vehicle every day so you wouldn't be as apt to notice that. Not that I excuse you for being careless, but I can see a reason.
