Hi all,
Picked up my new car last friday and when i was waxing it, i noticed that it has a bubble under the stripe. i tried my best to push it out to no avail. decided not to try and pop it because it may get water in since i doubt it will sit properly.

The dealer is going to look at it.
What is the proper fix for this? is there anyway to fix it without removal and putting a new one on?
does the dealer have the factory bonnet stripes or do they only have the all black ones? (these are black with a white border.)
thanks

BTW: i've got several hours into the wash/wax job that i did over the weekend and have two coats of Mothers wax on the bonnet....

 

if they come w/ pinstripes (borders) from the dealer then it's likely oem stripes, either put on at the factory or port or dealer

as far as i know, the proper *fix* is to a poke small hole using a small pin and carefully push out the air

 

Since it is a new MINI, the proper fix is a dealer replacement. Otherwise, just pop it with a needle and be done with it.

 

Yup, complain until the dealer replaces it. Or pop it with a 'silk needle', they are very small...creates a super small hole
