Black Mirror Caps

Anyone have a hook up to where I can get these at a decent price?

Thanks,

They come up on ebay now and again, or you can try a 'Want to Buy' in the Marketplace forum.
What do you consider to be a 'decent price'?

Anything less than dealer cost? I've seen a few on ebay but they're not black. Will keep looking. Thanks.

Marketplace is probably a good idea, I see a few pop up every now and then

From: Philly area.
Check a couple dealers, they often have "take-offs" for people that opt for alternatives. I picked up a pair for $5.00 that will fit my R55, nearly perfect all brackets in tact. (in some cases I've heard that the brackets can brake when taken off)
Check with the person you bought your MINI from (if it was a dealer) he or she may be able to scrounge up a take-off for you for nearly nothing.
My local dealer literally had about 5 or 6 black and about the same white as well.

Thanks everyone for your replies

Great tip MrBeeb! Never thought of that.

SnYpR- Pls PM me a price if your carbon fibers come through this weekend.
