white side mirror caps

does anyone know where I can find these?

plus, would painting the roof on my Mini One white make me look too much like a wannabe?

I just really LOVE the white roof...

You'll be able to buy white mirror caps from your dealer.

There are a few ONEs about with painted roofs. Do whatever makes you happy.

painting it would make me happy

however, I know someone that could paint the roof for me... I'm just not too sure about the quality... would it ever be as good as a factory paint-job?

It doesn't make you a wanna be, I am getting my dealer to repaint my one with a white roof and white mirror caps.

While he's painting the roof, have him do the mirror caps too. They come of easily.
