Is this for a second generation Mini? If so I took mine off and replaced them with carbon fiber ones. All the clips are in perfect condition $75 plus actual shipping costs if you want.

The dealer actually came through for me. I went by this morning and the salesman I leased the car from popped some black caps off a brand new midnight black car inside the showroom and installed them on my car. took all of 10 minutes.

That's interesting... Roadshow Mini changed my chrome mirror caps out for some black ones yesterday, too. They were happy to do it.

My MA swapped Quentin's mirror caps when we picked him up. I wanted the chrome package and white mirrors, so he was built with chrome mirrors. Chrome mirrors are a $100 option from the factory, so I can see why they'd do it for free.
