Alas yes. Both XMs taken hits this weekend. It hurts! Now I need to get the glass replaced.

It looked fine, I'll have a good check in the light tomorrow. If you do have some glass, that would be great.

The plastic mirror casing showing only minor signs of a collision - absolutely un-damaged.

The glass though tells its own story.

Oooo, nasty. How really annoying. But the important part is okay..being the actual wingmirror casing. I have worse on mine, it's always that edge that gets knocked.

Those mirror casings are very strong, the glass always gets it first.
