Default I need left mirror for 08

So I was in the garage examining the damage from my crash yesterday, and my wife asks tells me I should go through warranty for my broken mirror. It didn't fold as designed. I said I don't think the would go for it since the mirror wasn't designed to support the weight of the bike...
Anyways, if anyone has a stock left mirror for a 2008 1KRR let me know. Mine snapped off at the pivot.

Check on the mirror, when I dropped my bike, the mirror folded like it was designed to do and it took NO damage. Might be worth looking into.

When I went down it broke the metal on the mounting bracket. didnt break the glass or plastic. i bought the mirror and just swapped out the front which has the light and all.. be happy, mine pushed through the front fairing and I hade to replace the fairing....

The arm looks like it can be taken apart in the middle. The metal around the pivot broke, and the mirror was left hanging by the wires. So what I actually need is the baseplate/pivot section of the mirror assembly.

yup thats what happened to mine... its only like 80 bucks... the worst part of replacing it is removing the wires through the broken piece.
