My new graphics

I really liked the look of the black hood stripes I had on the hood, but almost EVERYBODY has stripes on their Mini. I have an old friend that owns JN Graphics in Oxnard, CA, he has done custom paint work for me in the past. Since I had the Mini in Oxnard, I thought that I would see what he could to make my Mini different than all of the others. He took photos of the car and then designed different graphics on it on the computer. After we chose the one we liked, the graphics were then printed on vinyl and applied to the car. Here is the results.

Awesome. And I bet much less expensive than having MIMI Motoring Graphics design and make them.

Looks great! It's nice to see people break out of the mold and do something unique. My fav part is the hood treatment. Enjoy!

The hood looks a little odd to me, but everything else is sweet. So cool to see something different!

I really like the hood. He did a nice job of working the washer nozzles into the design and the dimensional look provides just enough depth. Nice work!

I like the hood. Reminds me of the 67 427 corvette hood.
