So here it is. I'm so excited but I can't really drive it until it's broken in. AARGH! These pics are just a primer, I have to get around to taking nice pics soon.

Hey, I just noticed your sport stripes extended way down past the bumper. I thought dealer installed sport stripes only went down the hood??? Bought an extra set or do they come that way now?

Beautiful MINI -- congrats!

I'm a bit nervous about the potential for someone to swing the RAV4 driver's side door open with reckless abandon... Protect your MINI at all costs!

The rav4 is the cherished one. Rest assured, there is no reckless abandon in our garage.

As for the sport stripes, they were farmed out by the dealer. I showed them a pic from here https://www.northamericanmotoring.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=43178
and told them I wanted the intercooler (fake) and the bumpers striped as well. I don't know how many stripe kits were installed, I only paid for bonnet stripes.
