Yeah, red on red might be a little much, though we could do that if you really wanted to. My suggestion would be to go with silver eyes so as not to mess with the color scheme of your vehicle. Alternatively, I think blue would also look nice.

Ha! That would be awesome! I don't see any reason we couldn't do this, but there'd probably be a fee for the extra amount of printing that would be needed.

Ok all, be reasonable. A quality shade is $50+ plus the addition of the design + shipping and the guy has to make a few $$ for his time, design and work.

Having said that count me in:

2012 MCS Convertible
Mini color: white silver
Iris: white silver
Expression: happy

Would a Countryman be welcome to play, or is this offer exclusive to non-R60s?
