Where did you get your Carbon Fiber Mirror caps

Looking around for Carbon Fiber mirror caps as well as the rear lid handle. Any suggestions for a source?

Ughhhh! You suck! You're doing almost the exact build I would love to do in my dreams with an unlimited fund bank account. Looks good though.

Red Bull,
I buy most of my Mini parts and accessories from Pete at minspeed.net here in South Florida.

JCW CF mirror caps for $280:

And JCW CF rear lid handle for $180:
http://minspeed.net/R56CFP.htm

Plus Pete will price match if you find a lower price.

+1 for Morristown MINI for best online prices. Check their eBay auctions. Sometimes those auctions are priced better then their website. I got a great deal on the JCW CF rear handle for the boot from one of their eBay auctions.

+1 for Minspeed. I don't have CF mirror caps, but I got other JCW CF stuff from them. Loved their service and fast shipping.

Red Bull, your going to remove your mirror caps again? I hope you have better luck this time.

Had to get some ribbing in to the best looking DS/B R56 out there
