thanks for the help guys. but i went to several bmw dealers today...
-life quality in brooklyn tried to rip me off for 1500 and some change. my service advisor(a real a*shole) said that the "motor" was missing, even though i told him it worked perfectly fine. so i said screw you and left.

bmw of bayside in queens said i would have to wait at least a week, but i can't turn my head for a whole week of driving. so i left from them too...

then i went to rallye in long island, and my service advisor (cool guy) told me i could check the junk yard and may be able to find used mirrors. he tells me all i need is the glass which would cost 350 each side+labor if i bought it from him. so i did what he told me, and drove another 25min. to check, and voila they had both. so i only paid a total of 170 dollars for both. the driver's side mirror was 90, and passenger side was 80.

i can say the outcome was pretty good today, even though i drove a total of about 3 hours turning my head all the time.
