You can purchase them from the parts department of your dealer, or with a NAM discount from Classic MINI. Unfortunately the door ovals are only available by purchasing the entire door panel (expensive). You could also consider having your current parts painted by a body shop.

My dad used to take me to the formula 1 races in the late 60's when I was a kid living in Brussels, Belgium. There usually was also a stock car race held on the same day, and I vividly remember a bunch of Mini's racing around the track. I think that's when I first fell in love with the car..

I looked it up at my body shop and it is going to be over 1,000 to get it painted. I was just wondering if anyone had a dash they were chnging or what not. Thanx for the help guys. If you know where I can find a yellow one let me know.

As I said, you can purchase the factory dash parts from the dealer. I priced it out last year. It was around $250 list price or about $200 from Classic MINI with NAM discount. That's for the 3-piece 2005/2006 body colored dash. Earlier years had a 5 piece dash and the total would be slightly higher.

By the way, $1000 for such a small, easy paint job is quite unbelievable. They may have misunderstood what you wanted or you should check with other shops.
