Having some trouble with a mirror

[Alibi1986]

Hi, I'm a noob to catia and I'm working on a small project on my own time. I drew up a hood ornament only to realize that I drew it backwards. I tried to mirror it but I got an error message and I can't seem to fix it. Any help would be appreciated...

Here is a screenshot:

Is there a way can attached the CATIA part so I can get a better perspective?

I would take long to explain, so here's a video.

1- one thing thing i noticed is that you used fix alot in sketch mode. try to avoid that. the best is to constrain back to the origin.

2- suggestion: create 1 sketched closed element then repeat using the user-pattern instead of drawing all 3 in sketcher.
