Mirror LHD cover for cars from 2020 Mansory for Ferrari 812 Superfast Stallone
Mirror LHD Cover 2020 Mansory Carbon for Ferrari 812 Superfast Stallone
The Mansory mirror LHD cover for 2020+ Ferrari 812 Superfast Stallone is the exterior carbon face-panel that wraps the revised driver-side mirror housing introduced on 812 Superfast production from the 2020 model year. Ferrari modified the 812 Superfast mirror housing profile in 2020 to accommodate revised internal heating element geometry and a reshaped lower stalk junction, making the pre-2020 cover incompatible with 2020+ cars at the clip rail positions. This LHD cover — listed within the Mansory Body Kit for Ferrari 812 Superfast Stallone — is designed for the left-hand-drive orientation of the driver-side mirror on 2020-onwards cars, where the housing curvature and clip positions differ from both the passenger side and from the pre-2020 housing design. Owners of 2020–2022 LHD 812 Superfast builds who want a factory-quality carbon exterior on their driver mirror should specify this SKU rather than the universal mirror cover, which matches the pre-2020 clip geometry. The 812 Superfast's naturally aspirated 6.5L V12 places driver focus firmly on mechanical excellence; the carbon mirror cover at the driver's sightline during all forward travel extends that precision to the car's exterior detailing language.
Construction & Materials
The LHD cover (2020+) uses the same autoclave pre-preg 3K twill construction as the wider Stallone programme, with a mould geometry verified against Ferrari's 2020-revision mirror housing specification using a physical housing reference. The clip array has been repositioned versus the pre-2020 cover to match the 2020+ housing's revised retention points, which move two of the three primary clips rearward by approximately 8 mm relative to the housing leading edge. The leading-edge layup is four-ply to resist aero vibration at motorway speeds, and the lacquer system uses a UV-stabilised base coat to address the elevated solar exposure of the driver-side mirror on LHD cars parked facing south in European climates.
- Weave: 3K twill on all exterior surfaces
- Cure: autoclave at 120 °C / 6 bar
- Wall thickness: 1.8–2.2 mm on flat sections, 2.5 mm at leading edge
- Weight: approx. 0.23 kg
- Mounting: revised 2020+ clip array (3 primary, 2 secondary clips at repositioned locations)
- Finish: high-gloss clear lacquer with UV-stabilised base; satin on request
- Orientation: LHD driver-side specific (2020+ revised housing geometry)
- Weave batch matched to universal mirror cover for cross-programme consistency
Design & Visual Function
The 2020+ LHD cover maintains the Mansory Stallone mirror aesthetic — a clean carbon blade with a forward-raked leading edge that visually echoes the nose of the widebody kit — while precisely matching the updated housing contour that Ferrari introduced at the start of the 2020 model year. The 3K twill at 45° orientation ensures the weave chevron reads consistently with all other Stallone carbon panels: side skirts, side panels, and the adjacent outer door handle. From the driver's cockpit of an LHD car, the driver-side mirror housing is in constant peripheral vision across all European motorway driving, making the quality of the 3K weave surface on this specific cover of particular importance to the overall Stallone specification impression during high-speed cruising.
Aerodynamically, the mirror cover maintains the OEM external profile — no additional drag or turbulence is introduced versus the stock 2020+ housing geometry. The stiffer carbon shell reduces the high-frequency mirror vibration that painted ABS housings can exhibit at 180+ km/h, improving the clarity of the mirror reflection and reducing driver fatigue on sustained high-speed runs where mirror checks are frequent. The leading edge profile directs airflow smoothly along the mirror face toward the door glass, reducing the acoustic turbulence that manifests as wind noise at the A-pillar at motorway speed on high-performance GT cars.
The LHD cover (2020+) is one of four mirror-related Stallone SKUs, each addressing a specific combination of production year, orientation, and cover-vs-housing function. This cover — the exterior face panel only — is the appropriate choice for owners who want to retain the OEM structural housing (whether for warranty reasons or to avoid the partial door-card removal required for a full housing swap) while replacing the visible exterior surface in carbon. For full housing replacement on 2020+ LHD cars, the LHD housing or new LHD housing listings are the relevant alternatives.
Compatibility & Fitment
Designed specifically for LHD Ferrari 812 Superfast (F140-platform, naturally aspirated V12, RWD) produced from 2020 onwards through to end of production in 2022. Pre-2020 812 Superfast cars use the universal mirror cover. The 812 GTS uses a different mirror housing design and is not compatible with this cover. This cover fits the LHD driver-side position. For the passenger-side mirror on LHD cars, the universal mirror cover is the correct listing. RHD right-side driver-mirror equivalents are not listed in the current Stallone programme — consult directly for RHD availability.
Installation & Reversibility
Installation follows the same clip-release procedure as the universal mirror cover, adapted to the 2020+ housing clip positions. Using a plastic trim tool, release three primary and two secondary clips by inserting the tool into the rear gap and working forward along the housing perimeter — allow 12–18 minutes per side to avoid clip breakage on the revised positions. The Mansory cover snaps onto the same clip positions. No glass, heating element, or electrical disassembly required. Fully reversible — the OEM cover reinstalls in under 10 minutes. A Mansory-authorised installer is recommended to prevent door paint scratches during clip-release operations.
Pairing within the Mansory 812 Superfast Stallone programme
For a complete 2020+ driver-side mirror assembly in carbon, pair this cover with the mirror LHD housing (2020+) which replaces the structural housing body, or with the new mirror LHD housing (2020+) for the latest tooling revision. The outer door handle completes the door-surface carbon ensemble visible from outside the car at the approach angle.
Maintenance & Durability
The 2020+ LHD cover receives the full ceramic-coat maintenance protocol: apply at installation, renew every 3 months. The driver-side position is exposed to direct morning sunlight in northerly climates and to the highest UV intensity during western-facing parking — the UV-stabilised lacquer base coat specifically addresses this orientation-dependent exposure pattern. Clean weekly with pH-neutral shampoo; avoid glass cleaner migration from the adjacent door glass onto the cover surface, as ammonia degrades the lacquer boundary at the clip seam over time. Inspect the clip seam at the rear of the cover annually for any gap that may allow moisture ingress toward the heating element connection points. Road debris impact on the leading edge can create micro-chips in the carbon lacquer — address these promptly with spot UV-cure clear to prevent epoxy matrix exposure. Lacquer life 8–12 years with consistent UV sealant and ceramic protection.
Lead Time & Warranty
Lead time 1–2 weeks. Covered by Mansory's 12-month warranty against delamination and clip-retention failure under normal road use. UV lacquer degradation resulting from insufficient ceramic coat maintenance is not covered under the manufacturing warranty.
FAQ
Q: How do I confirm whether my 812 Superfast requires the 2020+ LHD cover or the universal mirror cover?
A: Check the build date stamped on the door jamb identification plate. Any 812 Superfast produced from January 2020 onwards requires the 2020+ cover for the driver-side mirror on an LHD car. Cars with a 2017–2019 build date use the universal mirror cover listing without an orientation suffix.
Q: Is this the same part as the mirror LHD housing (2020+)?
A: No — this is the outer cover shell that clips over the existing OEM housing structure. The LHD housing (2020+) is the full structural housing body that mounts to the door stalk and carries the glass assembly, replacing the entire external structure. These are separate parts that can be ordered individually or together for a complete carbon mirror stack on 2020+ LHD cars.
Q: My car is RHD — can I use this cover on the driver-side (right) mirror?
A: No — this cover is shaped for the LHD driver-side mirror housing orientation. For RHD driver-side applications, contact us directly for RHD-specific availability as the housing curvature and clip geometry differ between LHD and RHD orientations on the 2020+ housing revision.
Q: Does fitting this cover affect the auto-folding mirror function on my 812 Superfast?
A: No — the cover clips over the housing without contacting the fold actuator, glass carrier, or wiring loom. Full auto-fold, heating, and electrical adjustment functions are preserved exactly as per OEM specification.
Q: Can I get the cover in matte finish for a matte-wrapped 812 Superfast?
A: Yes — matte clear lacquer is available on request, specified at order time. Matte lacquer is maintained with a matte-specific ceramic spray; conventional carnauba waxes leave a sheen on matte surfaces and must be avoided to preserve the matte appearance.
