Number Decal

My GP2 decals are heavily sun bleached. I have seen a few older 2017 postings about contacting mini for the 3rd stored number decal at mini-usa and tried numerous time to get a hold of someone that could help but to no luck. Anybody have success in getting an OEM roof number sticker? any good direct contact referrals?

I also need to replace the roof and door stickers and am cringing a bit on the OEM costs. any body have spares to sell or a better more affordable resource? is it sacrilegious to go non-OEM replacement and if not anybody have good luck with dimensional correct good quality aftermarket decals?

Thanks in advance!

An unfortunately all to common problem. I ended up replacing both roof decals as well as the "clown nose" due to fading but got all the decals through my local dealer (who's since been rolled into the BMW franchise) but I think you could try WayMotorWorks. FWIW when my hood scoop decal was going to be replaced I assumed there would be lots of fade and there wasn't any to speak of so I never replaced it. IMHO it looks better and if I weren't afraid of potential paint fade around the car I would remove the roof and door decals too (except the GP).

In answer to your question about other sources of roof decals I know there's a guy in the Europe who does them, see the FB group "Mini GP Owners Club".

Have your MINI dealer manager contact their Regional MINI Rep. He should be able to make that happen......
It's how I was able to get the 3rd one for one of my clients....

And if you have no luck, I have worked with this decal shop in the past. They are overseas but excellent quality. http://www.acromann.com/product_info...oducts_id=5036

Yep, remember people got a spare in a folder when they got the MINI new ( i saw it) and then MINI kept another set on file which the regional rep has to contact and get the company to reprint a set.

For all other GP2 decals: https://www.ecstuning.com/Search/SiteSearch/gp2_decal/

We stock a couple of the higher movers
