Hi my mini has really rotten doors and i was woundering if anyone had a pair of doors in the same blue as my mini below, if not does anyone know where i can buy a pair and get it in the same colour as my miin.
If you dont have the pair one will be good anyway.

What do you mean rottern? that door looks fine to me (much better than mine were)

And when it comes to doors, bonnets, boots etc it will most likely need respaying to mach the colour of the car anyways.

Yes it looks goot in the picture but the bottoms are rotton and it is comminig through on the drivers side. i would get them reskinned but the framas are also rotten and the but above the windows is nearly falling falling off

Even if you do manage to track some down which were the same colour originally. Over the years the paint will have faded. It will never match the car unless it is sprayed to match.

I dont minid if it isnt exactly the same but just so it is the same sort of thing

Here is a picture of the a different mini but the same colour if mine seems a bit different because of light.

i know what your saying, its alot easier to get some doors the same colour and just put them on but 1984mini and minislapper are right. its best getting any doors in good nick and getting them resprayed, because lets face it find doors in good nick and the same colour as your mini at the right price will be pretty hard!

will getting a pair of doors spraid be expensive also in that case does anyone have a pair of good solid doors that is located locally to me

[1984mini25]

Depends upon the condition of them dents etc, although if you know what you are doing you could fill in any dints, key the surface and prime them before sending them off for spraying.

http://www.minidoors.com/ repair and can spray them

[Tomf]

Well ideally i would want a pair that doesnt have any damage.

I would like to use minidoors but my doors are past repair as the frames are gone.

[wobblybob]

theyve got doors in that they can use but u'll have to pay the surcharge

[1984mini25]

Or try local scrap yards, wouldn't bother getting them from a mini show unless they are totally mint as they are normally over priced.

These a few decent doors at the one I go to regularly, will have to have a decent look next time I go.
