Looks like i might have been bidding against you guys for some of these.

Don't worry though; i've gone and spent that money elsewhere now. I had sent an email asking for him to put a few more online, and he responded that he had.

Took about 12 days from the time I won/paid. Thought it might take longer but I was pleasantly surprised.

I got a set also but I paid $450.00...not a big deal considering what I saved over dealer cost. Now I can go to Helix and get some more Mods (H-Sport Control Arms) or maybe a JAN Tune when he comes back around.

Looking on Morristown Mini, it looks like you can get a full dash for $300-$360 depending on model year, including shipping

Looks like a price drop across the board as eastbaymini (pleasanton, ca) has dropped the price as well. still not as good as the $255 that I paid, but seems like a solid "buy" to me. I wound up buying the downtubes from Morristown, the cupholder and shiftboot rings from Eastbay and bought the boot handle and hood scoop from somebody off of ebay. Carbon Fiber, ummmmmmm...........

i'm still waiting for the downtubes to drop in price more. doesnt make sense that they cost more than an entire dash.
