United-States Got Dash panels Painted Piano Black

So my car came standard with the Silver Checkerd interior. I got it off the showroom floor so I could not personalize it if i were to order it. So I went to my local MINI Dealer and they wanted $200.00 a Piece for the Piano Black dash panels. I was shocked. So I shopped around and found a local body shop and they painted them for me. for $100.00 for both. Here are some photos. It came out reeally well looks like its stock.

I'm going to get the door ring pieces done also next month.

Yeah I do too. It looked to plastic inside with the silver.

I have a build date of 10 March for delivery in mid April. Then the first trip will be to the Dragon, then maybe MoT.
