Too bad they are no longer produced. So you'd have to do it yourself, or find someone else to do it.

Now I would disagree. The only two colors I would go with would be the stock orange / red, or the white w/ red. The green just reminds me too much of any number of Fords or GMs I have driven over the years.

Essential Mini has got to be kidding about the cost of their carbon fiber pieces.
