saw these great mirror covers on mybeautifulmini.com
I'm wondering if anyone makes something similar for the R56 or if I'll need to buy some chrome caps & get AC or some other vinyl shop to make something similar. I also worry about the edges peeling up after a bit if it is just a bunch of vinyl stickers.
Anyone else seen something a bit different available for the R56 yet ?

 

It looks like vinyl on regular flat black caps. You can see where it isn't even.

 

We could replicate this on the R56 mirror caps, and other custom designs.
We do not have any R56 mirror caps in stock, so you would need to send us a set for the custom work.

We weather seal a lot of our products after vinyl application and they hold up very well.

 

I just made these up today. Came out quite good IMO.

Should answer your question.

 

Wow , they came out really nice , did you paint them . How hard was it to do ?

 

if you go to Mini2.com in the vendor section for Derek Woodman Mini in the UK has a special offers on Black Jack stuff, I ordered scuttles and rear view mirror. They also offer side mirrors. Original Mini parts works great. I think I paid about $140 US for the scuttles and rear view mirror cap.

 

hey! perfect.
i have chrome mirror caps and would love to trade em off for glossy black caps (original)

or i can sell em if you would like, since i want to buy some black caps
msg me for details etc.

 

If you are looking for OEM Black Jack mirror caps these are on Ebay for $120 with free shipping. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...%3AIT&viewitem=

That was the best price I could find. I just called Angelo @ Prestige MINI directly and got them for the same price.
