Thank you SO MUCH, I haven't stopped giggling since I opened the box.
Yay! They look awesome, Joanie! Good color choice on the eyes to go with the union jack accents.

Right in time for MOAT this weekend, eh Joanie? Winnie the MINI looks simply "smashing!" as well.

Now if my purrsonalized license plate would only come in ....
Awesome! Can't wait to see more pics with the paw print decals and the personalized, er, purrrsonalized plates! I'm glad that the color seems to match well too!

Of course! I've already made some Coupe and Roadster shades.

I was surprised at the difference in size and shape of the windshield from the other MINIs compared to the Coupe and Roadster. The rearview mirror is so much lower!

Yep! Here you go!

The example that you pulled from my website was made with Pepper White checkers so I changed them to pure white for you too. (The checkers can be in any colors.)

Hello Dittin

Well, My better half just bought a 2012 BLK Countryman with Blk/Gry/Whte Union Jack mirrors/Sun Roof.

Can you draft "The Rock w/Union Jack Eyepatch?"
Eyelids-Black
Pupils-Gray
Eyepatch-Black,Gray,& white.(Union Jack Flag)

Something like:
http://images.search.yahoo.com/r/_yl...-/120668467779

It's a done deal, but need to see it so changes can be made before buying, if needed.

Hey~ that's good for me. Now if I can get my wife to slow down long enough to look at it, we can get it ordered.
Great job.

Speaking of the Union Jack, I've been meaning to do a Union Jack Eyeshade design too:

This one is an interesting combination!

I CAN make a Classic Mini Eyeshade, but unfortunately I don't have the template for one. If you'd like to measure your Mini's windshield for me, I could get that template on file. I'll have to let you know where to measure for the different dimensions. Let me know if you'd like to do this!
