Generally speaking they’ve always been decent. Don’t know about the US Mazda 2 based models but if they’re the same mazda 2’s that we got they’d be ok too.

generally speaking gaskets. Unless the one I need is out of stock and wont be back any time soon I’ll stick to OEM.
honestly shop around for a good paint shop they’ll be able to sort the door out without much fuss and the parts for the mirror arn’t too expensive and if you’re lucky can be delivered painted already. But looking at this image it’s just the black trim so it might be easy to just move the cover over to the new mirror.
Once you get a few quotes do the math taking into account that your rates could be effected too and take the best option.
But I would fix it before rust sets it on the door. It’ll turn a small-ish job into a larger one.
how deep are the scratches? if it’s only gone through the clear coat and you can see the colour under it you might be able to polish it (you cant add paint layers back but you can knock down the edges so it’s less noticeable)
if it’s gone past the colour layer then no amount of polish will help and you’ll need to paint it.
I’d personally not settle for those little paint pens they look shit on anything other than stone chips and get it done right.
I’d need to know the cut off for the model years included, context for what the problems could range from and exactly how many are major (engine failure) to minor (busted cup holder) and are these reported by customers, dealers and the manufacturer.
A typical Land Rover customer will want perfection so for all we know as we’re not shown the brake down of the data 230 of those complaints are to do with trim fit and finish while say for the Kia 130 of those could be total drive train failure.
Basically without proper context this is about as useful as going off “vibes” etc.
Also maybe a side note given the shit show around Kia and Hyundai’s US model cars lacking proper security and all the shit they’re in for it I don’t think just 152 is right. Unless those effected cars have aged out of the sample group window.
type the part number on the package into google. it’s 96864850. You’ll get exactly what’s in this image from a ton of venders as it’s a very common part for GM’s Korean exports.
