try grouping that half
now move the centre pivot to 0,0,0 so or to the inside edge of model depening where it is in the scene
to move pivot pusk W then 'insert' and move the pivot into position
x snaps to grid

hit dup look at the compas in the bottom left an look fo the direction it needs mirroring to now in channel box for this direction put -1

Now at SMU doing BSc 3D Computer Animation so its hard to get on here
