MINIs are like a blank canvass. They afford owners an excellent opportunity for personalization and self-expression. Very nice execution! And it's cool that the decal actually came from Hawaii.

Actually PINK is an option in the color drop down on some of the sites that sell it.

Hmmmmmm... well, Amy... if it comes to an arm wrestling match to fight over Dr Evil, that means you won't have to worry about me chasing you down because I won't be around any more to do the chasing !!

Pink and black...

I don't see that as a "girly look." Looks very Hawaiian to me.

Paint your car pink, and you have a girly look.

How involved is the the "removing the wheels" step? Do you mean the cover or the whole thing, tire and all?

Trust me, I was really torn between the black and the pink, but then decided that the black flowers went well with the black top, etc...BUT...the nice thing is I can change it if I so desire, right???

And speaking of my husband (and in reference to another thread)...he told me that if his company ever took his company car away, he'd take my MINI (minus the flowers!) and I would get to order another MINI!!! He loves my MINI so much that I"m POSITIVE he would have driven it even WITH the PINK flowers!!!

---and come to think of it, I have even driven her since we put the flowers on!!!! HEY!!! Something is wrong here!!!
