Check these stripe out!

I'm a mini graphic designer in Phoenix. I made up these stripes which I installed on a demo car at the dealer. I thought you guys would like them.

Ohhhh, I very much like them. But my car is Pepper white, any plans on making the stripes in a different color? Blue maybe, my interior is lapis blue. Boot stripes to match too?

Nice work.
Similar to a flower lei. White works on any dark color.

sorry, It doesn't work for me at all (see thread on whether the MINI is a chick car, this would put the lid on it ,I'm afraid) I can see women loving this, but I fear any man sporting these would be subject to having the snot beaten out of them by every homophobe out there. JMHO

Oh, come on! They are perfect for the Hawaii MINI folk, holden! I bet that the islanders would be quite open to what is a very cool design.

Perhaps if Wanda were BRG or PW, that would be a possibility. My all-Jet Black MCS does have a Union Jack sunroof flag, so I have considered either blue bonnet stripes with red/white edging or red bonnet stripes with blue/white edging. What do you think?

I'm sorry but in Hawaii I think this would be something pretty cool to see on a MINI.
Flower leis are not only for women.

I agree. And you are right. There IS always room for jello.

Did you find a MINI jello mold yet?
We need to make one with a vacuform machine or something.

Someone already has. A 1/10 scale RC car body is made of vacuformed lexan, and would do quite nicely as a large jello mold!

Scroll down the page to find the MINI bodies.
