Hey All

I'm one of those "free thinkers" that loves all Minis - Round Nose, Clubman and shock Horror - the New MINI !!

Anywho, I'm looking at doing a few exterior mods to the old 'K', and I need to source a few New MINI parts. I haven't even bothered pricing them up new, as I'm sure I'll need a third mortgage, does anyone know of anywhere dealing in 2nd hand New MINI parts?? (sounds wrong doesn't it??!!)

Alternatively I'll look at aftermarket replacement parts if there's a supply of them yet.

Any Ideas??

I don't want to give too much away yet, so lets just leave it at "exterior parts"!!!! :wink:

If you're like me you might be going after the badges, doorhandles, mirrors, or all of them. Best bet is probably ebay. If you're after tail-lights I saw some sell a while ago for $60 or something.

Hi Bob

Some of the M2ers have spare exterior bits from upgrading to aero kit. What are you after?

I have some Cooper skirts, free to good home.

Cheers
Chris

You can get them from BMW unpainted - primed though - ready to go... if you are loaded, you can get a BMW one made out of Carbon fibre for $400!

I'm definitely NOT Loaded, which is why I was hoping to pick up a second hand one!

There arn't a lot of people changing their scoop unfortunatly, at least not in Australia that I know of. The only reason you would is if you went to a CF one.

Good luck though, I've thought of doing similar to my project Mini (when it comes) :)
