U need 3 bits. Hinge, the actual chrome bit and the surround. £42 from BMW but youll need a cooper S chassis number Or about £65 from minisport

U need to spray the surround to match your body colour. Easy to do....

Yes it is. Can be fitted yourself, but the surround needs to be sprayed to match the car colour. - I'm sure that somone on here has posted info on how to fit it - try a search

Saw an advert for one at £69.95 - look around tho
