Mini Machine panels are really good, thay also stock heritage as well. I generally say if you can afford heritage/genuine panels then but them. The build is generally better & the metal is thicker but you can get pretty good fit with pattern ones. Just be prepared to spend time "adjusting them".

M-Machine panels are fantastic especially their Mini pick-up panels and floor pans.

Do Mini-Machine go to any of the shows? Does anyone know if they will be at the Mini Fair on the 29th?

I just received a shipment of panels in, most of them M-Machine, all except one BMH panel... that is in repulsive shape. It's seriously pitted and rusty, all with the e-coat over top of it. I dont know about you, but I dont think this would have passed my quality check....



The rest of the parts were well up to what I expected them to be, however the inner sill strengtheners seemed to lack the impression that is supposed to cap over the seat belt anchor plate. I will probably end up welding the plate to the outside or trying to put the bends in.

this pic I pulled out of my reference pictures I keep to show what I mean, it's not my picture. (if it's yours and you want it pulled just ask)
