IND, they will give a discount to forum members or at least free shipping usually.

I have an EBII with Red Leather and would like either body color or black mirror caps, no CF for me. Can I just order the 228 part at my dealer and end up with an OEM part?

The black or painted mirror caps from IND are OEM. They just paint them.

Just to throw a different spin on caps, my F32 has CF custom 3 stage painted EBII Candy...if interested, they can be seen in my build thread below

My M235 silver caps looked really cheap and tacky. Ordered the OEM color from IND and they look REALLY good- every one says that it looks much better. I have to say that the paint job by IND is perfect- exactly the same paint color, metallic sparkle, no flaws.
It was a little harder to put on than they said- really took some effort with the plastic wedge, but got it done.
Couldn't be happier.
