Good luck, hard to find oem. I have the nla door handles. Which i have only seen the set on my MINI. Good luck with the search. I know you can get the cap aftermarket.

Same here, they’re super nice (made in Italy) the install isn’t so easy 😫 a few right side mirrors still available…in Lithuania lol. I know the aftermarket covers are available (stick on) but heard fitment may not be too good.

My guess when you place those orders they will come back nla for dealers from eastern Europe and eBay (tend to steal all our pictures also and remove the ECS watermark which is violation of ebay rules). I can see most euro and USA stock on 99% of the items. Lots of those things that went nla years ago are gone.

Might get lucky and they have a set of new old stock. But i bet its super rare to happen.

Those UJ handle are awesome and i remember these back in the day, Most people did not even order them or know they were a thing. Nice find.

Good luck. They look really fast -- how many HP do they add?

How would I know if mine are OEM? Let me know and I’ll check. Have a set off an ‘05 R52 JCW that I bought at 45k miles that I’m not using and afraid to remove cover - I simply swapped out entire assembly.

I have a set that I could probably part with, I'd rate them as GOOD condition, dinged down from NEAR MINT or EXCELLENT due to one broken mounting tab and a few small blemishes/scratches, but at least they're not yellowed which if you've been looking you've likely seen how these in particular can get grunged 'n grody after prolonged years of sunlight exposure.

Hit me up if interested!
