SO, How much do you think it will cost me to fix this?

Today is trash day in my neck of the woods. I was driving home down a small back road. A truck was coming the other way so I moved to the right so he would have more room and this trash can jumped out and hit my car and broke the mirror off.

ouch........looks like it pulled the three retaining nuts out of the mirror. Can you re- attach them?

I think after I take the door apart to remove them I may get them to thread back into the mirror. I think a little apoxy will help hold them in nicely also. We will see. I will need to wait untill Sunday so I have the time to tear it down.

Rob, I am glad it happened on the passenger side and not the driver side. I know how much you like to hang your arm out the driver window.

Thanks Jeff, I needed a good laugh.
Well it was not as bad as it looked. That is right WAS NOT! It is already fixed. I could not stand knowing it was out in the garage all hurt. I stopped at the store on the way home from work and picked up some epoxy. Took the door apart as soon as I got home and removed the mounting studs. Used the epoxy to help remount the studs in the mirror. Stopped and had some dinner wile I was waiting for the epoxy to set. Went back out and put it all back togeather.
Total repair cost $4.95 plus tax.
