Hit a mailbox NEED HELP

[Gruz7]

So today I found myself in a tight situation with a small road, my expedition and a dump truck. Instead of stopping to let him pass I kept going and collided with my neighbors mailbox...
I happened to crack all the mirror glass and cause some cosmetic damages.
I am looking for help as to where I could find a new passenger glass for cheap and I am looking for a GREAT scratch removal product.

Thanks

That last pic is the point of impact from his mailbox.....

Actually did a bit of research and solved my own problem I found the mirror glass for $37 and $12 for some good scratch remover... I'll most likely post some pics within this week of the finished product

watch out for scratch removers. that scratch looks like a good one. i would get a good compound and a buffer only if you know what your doing if not go to a good detail or body shop so they can buff that out. i do my own buffing for scratches like that, but i know what im doing. you can easily screw up your paint job if your not careful. also i've never had good success with scratch removers. I own my own plumbing company and have several trucks and i can tell you from my experience don't wast your money on a scratch remover for that scratch you have.

Thanks for the help man and you were right for the most part because the side is almost scratch free but, although it's very faint, the big scratches are still visible I might need to get that buffing you suggested

Help? Don't run into mailboxes.

If you can somewhat tell by the pics the scratch remover worked pretty good for the most part but I will be vein much more cautious around the mailboxes from now on
Also my new mirror was $37 shipped and should be in in about 4 days

This is what I used....

Thank you very much! I used several coats of it just be sure I couldn't make it any better than that but it worked out ok and they are barely visible now
