A bit hard to tell by this picture if you need complete new mirror (#1 on the diagram) or just supporting ring (#3) and lower housing (#4). To me looks like just #3 and may be #4 so it would be cheap fix.

I usually buy from one of these online vendors:
https://www.fcpeuro.com/
https://www.ecstuning.com/
https://www.getbmwparts.com/
Looks pretty cheap ~$35-40

This is super easy since the diagram and part nbr index was provided. Just copy the 11 digit BMW part nbr...then type "BMW xx xx x xxx xxx" (where x=the actual BMW part nbrs) into a google search box. You will get a list of vendors that sell the exact part you're looking for.

Looks like you were also given some great online vendors to check out, too. Do the same with them to make sure you're getting the correct part...USE THE 11 DIGIT BMW PART # (that we know is correct for your model/model year/build date etc) on their website search feature. And yes, check with your local BMW dealership's Parts Department, too. Sometimes they will match or come close to what you find online if you present them with the evidence. Even if it cost a few cents more...you may come out better paying their price and local taxes versus shipping & handling charges buying online.

Good luck.
