Viper Stripes Installed

I got my Viper Stripes installed yesterday by Mike at Aesthetic Creations.

I am happy, what do you think?

Thanks! I definately wanted it to go all the way to the bottom. Props to those of you that installed them yourself. There is NO WAY I could have done it without messing it up.

Very, very cool. Are they flat black or glossy? (hard to tell)

Those look great! I think they look better when they go all the way to the bottom too....I plan on doing that to mine once I get the JCW aero kit put on. Again, it looks great!

Another pic in better light. I also had carbon fiber sticker put on over the side markers.

Everything turned out perfect. I love the carbon side markers. Do you have a pic of the rear? You have to do the front rings like I did.

The viper's look excellent. Are you going to continue down the boot? Or is it already done and we just need a picture.

I like the carbon fiber on the side markers, give it a different look.

Yes the boot is the same. I will post pics later. I need to get the roof done too. Off to take Dad to dinner for Fathers Day.

Thanks for the compliments!

How did you do your front rings? I am blacking out the beltline and the grill trim on mine this week and I have been quoted a price of about $100.00 for the local body shop to do the rings. If it's not too hard, perhaps I could do it myself for a lot less....Do you have any chrome on your MINI? My plan is to have absolutely none.

Where did you get the cf side stickers? I'm deciding just how far to go with this cf thing. I never saw the black headlight surrounds before. How is that done?

I only have chrome door handles left and they will be bronze soon like my wheels, side emblems and gas cap.
My rings are done in Viynl, gloos black. Call this guy Lyle, he wraps them and unlike paint they wont chip. I paid $75 and he sends the new wrapped ones to you and you send your old chrome ones back to him. 650-743-8034
Also my headlight are covered in a very light blue.
