    Well, I thought I had found the sharp looking grey baseball cap with the red #37 embroidered on the front at ECS Engineering. Turns out it was discontinued. I happily purchased another cap from them, but I would love to get one of the JCW 37 baseball caps. I did find one on Ebay UK, but the vendor would not answer my request to have it shipped to the states. Anyway, does anyone know where I can get one of these caps. I think it looks great, and now I am on a quest. At the same time, my quest will not include paying some insane amount just to acquire the prized cap. Thanks for any help or guidance.

    Hi Guys-
    Thanks for all of the really generous feedback. Dave O and eMINIparts (Steven) hooked me up with Rochester MINI, and I purchased the discontinued (I'll call it NOS) grey hat with the red embroidered number on the front and JCW on the side. Unfortunately, I ordered before I noticed all of the nice offers. Anyway, thanks.

    Hi,
    I'm new to the forum. I am looking for one of the JCW Racing Academy 37 hats. I saw this thread online and I thought I'd ask if anyone on here knows how I can get one of these hats since they have been discontinued. I bought my JCW about a year ago and it's hard to find JCW stuff a lot of the time. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Chuck

    Thanks AAONMS and eMINIparts,

    I think I tried ordering from them the other week and they said the hats been discontinued. I'm still looking and checking EBay all the time as well. Thanks though for your suggestions. Much appreciated.
