Proud new owner!!

We are now proud owners of a new used 04' Mini Cooper, a real creampuff. I don't think we knew what we were in for.....the Mini fever seems to get hotter every day.
Just a couple of questions. Our Mini Cooper is chili red, white roof with checks, does anyone have a photo of a checkered roof with bonnet stripes? We love the checks but we think the bonnet stripes could be just the right balance or too busy.
Also, we want to get a clear bra to protect against our Colorado gravel. Can you put a clear bra over a bonnet stripe decal? Anybody know a good installer in or around Boulder, Colorado?
Thanks, we're off to go motoring.

Congrats on the MINI. I don't have pictures but I've seen plenty with checked roofs and bonnet stripes. I also think I've seen clear bras both over and under stripes.

Enjoy your new toy!
