    I recently joined the ranks with my first Mini, 05' Cabrio S. Here's a look at my first interior mods.

    Did you pick the wheel up recently? If so, from where?

    I got it a few weeks back. Worked with Ray at Morristown(openroad.com), best price I could find, great customer service :Thumbsup: Let me know if you want his email.

    Here you go: [email protected] I have a similar wheel in my 3 series, about two years old and it is showing no wear. This wheel looks to be made of the same materials, so I don't forsee any problems with it.

    They are not perfect, but the previous owner took great care of the car. I bought it with 53k miles on it.

    Just an FYI for anyone else who's been captivated by this thread.
    I spoke to the the folks at Morristown. They have ONE WHEEL left in Alacantra.
    It's $454 plus about $10 for shipping.

    Too rich for my blood, but maybe a fellow MA'r will grab it up?

    I've just heard that stuff picks up dirt really bad.

    Ouch!
