You know my friend from the UK always tells me " a proper Mini has Stripes "

I think your Mini looks better without them !!!

The stripes pulls your eyes away from looking at the whole Mini. My thoughts .... Welcome

Totally Agree, when asked first about my car, I said The stripes are a bit too much for me
However, I did say a car which can get away with stripes should have them, as not many cars come with factory stripes without being stupid,

But will like to try matt pinstripes too for the sublet outline of where the stripe should be yet without grabbing too much attention,

Congrats, we dont get the MINI one here. Do you have pics of the engine and interior, i know MINI makes them more basic than the cooper but I have not seen one in person.
