FS: AC roof graphic

Good news: I won a AC Roof Graphic at the Dragon

Bad news: I own a convertible

Good news: It's for sale for half price

It is the US Flag with all the victims of 911 printed on the red and white stripes. Looks like Mike usually charges $250 + $25 for shipping. It's yours for $130. including the shipping.

I know the person who originally did that design, I thought Mike kept that a one of a kind

Ive seen this on a MINI before, it is a very nice roof grapic folks. Great way to pay tribute to ALL those who lost their lives, not just those in NY like many other 9/11 items.

Short story:
Purchaser had it installed, and said it was wrong. AC printed another.
Second was installed, and something was wrong again. AC printed another.
Before third install, purchaser sold car, AC still had the third, and gave it away as a prize at MOTD.

Very nice of Mike to do so, to give someone an opportunity to own this one of two of a kind item. I wonder if the Lexus dealership the original Mini was traded into left the roof graphic on.

Hmm...isn't this the same graphic on MDS's MCSa before he traded it in for the Lexus IS250 AWD? A very sweet graphic, at a very sweet price. I'd would be all over it was sunroof preforated!

Get all over this one, really. I spoke with several graphics pros and they all said to stay away from the perforated vinyl. It requires special care and even when well taken care of, doesn't last as long as the "regular" vinyl.

Yeah, I've seen pics of MDS' roof (they're on a thread around here somewhere) before he traded in his MINI, very nice graphic !

Looks great in person too. From about more then 10ft out it looks like a normal american flag. Then from 5-9'11" you can see that it has something on it. And from under 5ft you can tell that it is names.

WOW, I wasn't aware of the history of the graphic. Did a NAM search and found two pictures of the Graphic on MDS's car. Almost makes me wish I did not have a convertible.

the spoiler was actually done that way because the print was messed up. It wasn't quite long enough, so the made it look like the flag was fraying in the back , quick thinking on mikes part.

It does not look like it but is the sunroof perforated or solid? Or does it even designed for a sunroof?

I don't think it's made for a sunroof, but you can have it cut when you install it (like the above picture).

It is not perforated, but can be put on a sunroof. Mike of AC was kind enough to send me detailed installation instructions to pass along to the new owner.
