Not my car, but a pic of morphix's car taken from 'The Official Eclipse Gray Owners Club' thread, and he has the blackjack side mirror caps along with the side scuttles and rearview mirror (that look GREAT, in my opinion)

My mother's '09 MCS has them. They look great and really stand out in a crowd. Here's a pic:

Brisby, that looks to be the checkered flag graphic, not the black jack graphic.

I've looked up different variations on the flag colors and the proper etiquette that comes with all flags. If things work out as I've planned, the covers will tie in the roof color, car and wheel colors.
A good winter months project.
The gray with blk roof is perfect, for the BJ covers that are sold. Needed to get a good idea of the placement and size and I sure thank everyone for their photos.

I like the color tie-in idea - sounds very cool. Are you painting your caps? You might also check out the mirror decals on Bimmian.com: http://www.bimmian.com/MN/UJM/ or http://www.bimmian.com/product.htm?veh=AA&item=UJM (more pictures on that page but doesn't have ordering options).

Thanks so much Kirby.
I've saved the link, in case my project fails.

No sweat - I'm very curious to see how yours turn out. I've been considering trying something like this too. Just need to find some throw-away caps in case things go horribly wrong...

Even throw away caps are hard to come by, so I'm doing mine the first time with vinyl adhesive, just to see if my idea even works. I swear I could draw the Union Jack in my sleep, I've measured and figured so many times.

Great theme going there, morphix! Very classy! I'm considering some stripey stuff (maybe those urban mats and other classy-looking stuff) to continue my "silver lining" theme on the inside.
