Can you still buy new panels for mini's? If not metal, fibreglass? I'm new to mini's, I'm used to Datsun where yo can still buy guards and bonnets for some models. They don't always line up as the original panels, but they are new :wink:

You can get pretty much everything but just like the datto panels, every panel requires fine tuning to fit correctly, and to get nice gaps and lines.

I don't believe van sides have been available for years... and supply of Clubby guards has been patchy in the past.

You can get about every panel you need from Mini spares at Padstow.

I recently got a front apron and rear valance for my deluxe through MiniKing at Narellan (0246481233).....really good price, and great service, they got them to me overnight which is a feat in itself as my town is usually 2 day minimum even for auspost overnight express...
