Carbon door mirror covers

Hi peeps

My Mini one is is the paintshop being resprayed from plain balck to metallic black and I am considering replacing my chrome door mirror covers to carbon fibre ones. Does anyone know where I can get these from?

Thanks!

Thanks Phil - will check out that site.

Chilli - yes it is very nice. Got it back the other day - It is resprayed in Carbon Black which is a BMW M colour - goes bluey in the sunlight. I will take some pics after a a week or so. I'm not allowed to wash/clean it yet.

Got it done at a place local to me. Pulled in a few favours and got it done for a reasonable sum!

The JCW ones look like the best ones...how much you want for them?

PM me a price etc.

I got the JCW ones on ebay for 84 £ more or less...the dealer asked me twice that price for them...but I'm talking about italian dealers, I don't know if outside italy they are cheaper...
