£32.71 for a genuine panel
£6.45 for a non genuine,both from minisport
beware,non genuine panels do not always fit first time,some need trimming,re-shaping e.t.c,better of buying genuine,no fuss will fit straight off

In my experience, paying that bit extra for genuine panels would be worth it, I've just helped a guy do my front end and a door skin will ALL non-genuine panels, and it was a nightmare to do, but we got there in the end with a few mods.
