Gina's MINI all decked out!!!

I bought the flag and side stripes for Gina for Xmas... Then she purchased the red tow hook and antenna... Winter was so bad this year that we never really had a decent break to get all the stuff installed... I took the car Friday up to my friend's shop in Baltimore and he did a fantastic job...

So, what do you think?

Those side stripes look great, bull ! Very unique design.

I can't really see the sunroof graphic very well due to the angle of the pic and the glare. But I'm sure it looks great too.

What's the name of the business that your friend owns ? I'm looking for a good vinyl graphic installer in the area. Thanks.

Are you willing to go to MOT? I can get you the name of their installer who also takes work on the side. Not pay the dealer prices and he's a good guy.

If his name is Shannon, I already spoke with him and he wasn't comfortable doing the work I need done.

If it's someone else, sure, I'll give him a call and see if he can do this job. Just PM me with his name and number, please.

THANKS !

Thanks, bull. I checked out their website and it appears they focus on mechanical mods. But I'll give them a call and see what the say.

SpeedDesign in white marsh is who a lot of people in the club have used. I had contacted them when I was first deciding on graphics and I felt comfortable with their knowledge and prices.

Thanks, Sherill (did I spell it right THAT time??). Another vendor to add to my list to call tomorrow.

Now... back to your regularly scheduled thread. Bull... thanks for allowing the interruption.

Gina found the antenna and tow hook doing a search on eBay... The tow hook matches the antenna... You can see the tow hook in the picture but not the fact that it's red to match the antenna...

She loves the way her MINI looks... Thanks for the compliments...

Yep. I'd tell you why Shannon wasn't comfortable with installing my mod but it would give away my "secret".

No worries, the place Sherill recommended said they can do it and the price quoted is very reasonable, too. Thanks again, Ms. Sagworks.

Thats cool. I know Shannon gave me several breaks doing work on the side since I had custom, one-off graphics made from mini-pirate and he had no issues with them. You must be doing something complicated
