The left exterior side mirror, including its housing and glass, is missing, leaving the mounting area and internal components exposed. Additional cosmetic damage includes green paint transfer and surface abrasions on the left rear quarter panel and adjacent rear bumper. Inside, the black center-console armrest covering shows cracking, peeling, and general surface wear.
