I find it odd that you would blame the G for your obvious clumsiness.

Call Jason at Riverside Infiniti. I doubt that part will set you back very much at all.

yeah, the design is flawed. not much strength put into the design of that. i bumped into my teg lights a bunch of times. the worsed that happend to it was a little chip. i thought the mirrors was able to fold when hit?

Want to hear something odd? Same thing happened to me the second day I had my G (Got it about a month ago). Went into a car wash and the flappy car wash (don't know what else to call it) did the exact same damage. The drivers side mirror was broken off by that same plastic piece. Right now I have it glued though I can't go to a touch car wash because it'll come off again (I know this because I tried).

Let me know what it costs to fix since I'll be doing that as well though I need to contact the car wash (they did call me)-- I think they're going to take care of it.
