I'm more worried about the price you were given by Vardy's and the big diff today ?!?!? Anyway great news you have them ordered ... They will look great
It all got a bit confusing Craig, even after I'd double-checked... Yvonne at VARDY's was very helpful, but I'm still not sure we were singing off the same sheet.Cheers Euan.

I've gone with the price given by Parks, and put down a deposit (I nearly did that when I worked out the full price!). I actually phoned Parks back to check I had everything right (I have the 'final' figures) but when he gave me the 'breakdown' again, it seemed to come to a bit more - but as I said, I have the amount with discount, deposit etc which I still have to pay, so that's what I'll be paying!

Still swithering whether to go for an Alloy Change to complete the 'New Look'... As I've said elsewhere, fancy those Team Dynamics Pro Race 3's in Black for that meaner look...Nice one Euan, be good to see the finished look

Great news Euan. I think your car will look stunning with themCHEERS IAN! Thanks for the info and kind offer of assistance.
Got quote from Parks:
£609 Painted.
£322 Unpainted.
I discovered there's unfortunately also a few other bits and pieces required, like the wee black 'grilles' for the sideskirt, various other fixings and Works sill plates, which brings the whole thing to around £415.00 incl VAT for the Unpainted Skirts. It all adds up - well it's the MINI Way...
Phoned back and clarified quote from VARDY:
Approx. £523 Unpainted (probably including the required fixings, but not entirely sure)
(All the above include VAT, but not FITTING, so if you needed to get that done too...)
The price from Parks inludes my 'Customer Loyalty Discount' of about £50.00 which you wouldn't get unless you've done business with them before. So buying from Parks and getting Ian's boys to paint them would be approx. £565.00 in total, plus a wee bribe for Mr. King!
SO I'VE GONE AND ORDERED THEM!
Hope the info's handy for anyone else who has more money than sense - which in my case is about £3.50.
ps While I was on a spending spree, I decided to get the Works Carbon Fibre Steering Wheel Inserts (not the whole wheel Ian!), to match my Works Knob.
