Nice! Congrats.

I am a fellow Camden owner (Base model - delivered Nov 09). I got the White Silver with white roof, including sliding sun roof. I got the new funky rims and although I first had reservations, love them. I am taking it in to get the bonnet graphics put on. How do you like the graphics? I also have reservations about them as I have never seen a Camden with them. We'll see.


Nice ride. Enjoy it!

Grats! Love the Camden!

I've got one too! Make sure you post in the Camden Owners thread! Horizon blue for me though!

Oh and I like your stripes. The Camden stripes are UGLY. Don't get them. They look cheap.
They look okay on the builder on MINIUSA but I looked before I ordered... They REALLY look like vinyl stickers with some "stripes" horizontally lined and are placed on the outside edges of the bonnet.

Wow. You do get around these threads.

I will be going to the dealer tomorrow morning. I will probably have a look at the kit before having them put in on. I am really concerned that they will break up the open look of the front profile. So, have you seen them on a Camden?

We got the Camden stripes and love them. They are really unique to the car. Gives the hood a different look. We also added a little side graphic to the car, there are a couple pics in this threadhttps://www.northamericanmotoring.com/forums/3000073-post82.html

Just take a look at what stripes they're offering... You may like the "camden" stripe... I think it's not so great.

I think some aggressive stripes up the bonnet might look nice but it's all preference of course.

Oh and, I saw the thread on the feed on the left of my screen, I usually don't troll the boards, too much stuff! Hehehe

Hehe, love the side graphic!
Yeah, I dunno, they don't look bad on your set up... but on the Horizon blue, not a fan. Well that would be the beauty of MINIs wouldn't it? Personalization = Yay!

yeah. I just saw some pics of a blue Camden with the Camden bonnet stripes: not very flattering, at least from the pics. I think they look much nicer on the Silver White. Still reserved... will see.
