Warning Cover Stickers

I saw a MINI accessories website that had stickers made to cover those infernal air bag warning stickers on the sun visors. Now I can't find the link. Does anyone know of it (or one)? Thanks!

Yup. I got mine from Mike. A cheap and easy install I did all by myself.

It required two tools (hands), took approximately 7 seconds per visor to complete, and added .5 horsepower.

Cool. Now, do you suppose the extra weight of a racing stripe will counteract the reduced friction advantage created by its slickness and would there be any turbulence issues created by its ridges?

And checkers are really just stripes that criss-cross, and lots of them, if you think about it.

Just the stock. Black background with MINI wings. I havent quite figured out my interior design theme if you will. Its the "7" interior so I want to keep it pretty understated

Understood. Understated is a nice way to go sometimes.

Me... I'm going for the "Holy **** That's Cool" look.

Well, I have done lots of mods to my car. 23, last time I checked. Here are the few I actually have photos of:










That's a few. I have a rather significant mod forthcoming. It'll be done in a few weeks. I'll post pics... promise !

Those would be great, but for the poor grammar. Why is there a comma where it shouldn't be?

That looks really nice CR/PW. I really like that license plate holder and the boot stripes. Sharp!!

Im planning on doing a few mods this weekend. Im getting the "checkmate" floor mats and installing the "auto-up" window mod. You all inspire me to be a better MINI owner Oh and then Im ordering the "clear" side indicator covers. When thats done it will bring my mods up to 6. And thats all in the first 1200 miles God help me if I had and "S" and money to burn

I really need to get some photos up now

Thank you, Stewie... appreciate the kind words.

I did the clear side indicator lights a couple months ago... MUCH better look, so you'll be happy with that change.

Yep, modding is part of the fun of being a MINIac. I hate to think that I've almost exhausted my ideas after almost 25 aesthetic modifications. Of course, if I kept it up at this pace, before long, my MINI might not even be recognizable as a MINI.
