Has any one order from Aesthetic Creations I am trying to order something but it says it takes about 2-3 weeks to get shipped so I wanted to know if that seem right??? I was also wanting to know the cuality of their products.
I've purchased so much from AC that Mike is naming his next son after me.
If you order something he keeps in stock, you'll get it inside a week. If it's custom ordered, it can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months... or more.
Quality wise, you won't find better stuff.

AC is great. I imagine special items are slower, but a lot of his products are ready off the shelf.
I ordered a rear window piece, but I waited to have Mike install it at a summer event (MINIs in the Mountains), so I have not had to wait for the postal service or USPS.
All of my AC items are excellent and holding up well with our weather changes.

Also keep in mind that unless you're going custom the estimated wait times are usually overstated. They quoted me at least 2 weeks to get my boot stripes and they arrived in less than 1.

A. E. does good work. You can contact them to get a better time estimate on a specific item. Custom work can take awhile, depending on what Mike is working on at the time.

I disagree. I spent a lot of money and paid for install. Some pieces were not made at all, I had to help with the install, my stripes are different widths and I have marks on it from when it was installed.
right.....good, not great.

Mike @ AE was great to us. We had the union jack roof, A panels and hub centers put on at mini's on the dragon.. and i offered to help, how else would i learn to do things? The whole experience for me was awesome. It was the first time doing anything to my car, and i am planning on doing more this year! As someone said order with confidence!!!

Mike was great to us as well!
I ordered a custom graphic for my dad's MY/B MCS. They were swamped at the time I ordered it, which was about 3 weeks before Christmas, and I wasn't sure if it would get here on time. Mike had it drawn up, cut and to our door on the 22nd, which was awesome!
Glad to hear so many good things about Mike/Aesthetic Creations. I'm trying to get a custom graphic done in time to be installed when my Mini arrives (ordering the Mini in the next week ... woohoo!!!) so I'm not sure the odds of that happening or not. It's been a couple days since we last e-mailed back and forth and I haven't heard anything but I'm sure he's just busy.
Can anyone share with me a ballpark of what to expect price-wise on a custom graphic?

mike usually only gets time to answer emails one day a week and i'm sure he gets a lot of emails. if the email said it would take 2-3 weeks to ship i'm sure you will have it before you get your MINI since you haven't placed your order for the MINI yet. it will probably take at least 6 weeks for you to get your MINI (give and take a week). if you have hannah's email address email her, she is pretty fast on replying to emails.
I actually have all my graphics made locally. Look for a quality Vinyl shop local and make sure they use 3M products. Its also alot cheaper usually than A.C. I paid $125 total for my vinyl printed and installed for the boot and bonnet.

Not sure who Hannah is ... does she work with Mike at Aesthetic Creations?
AC is doing a set of custon colored Union Jack sidemarkers for me. They have been really busy in the last couple of weeks but completed them within a couple of weeks as promised and have been shipped.
I've ordered some stuff from Mike too. The first couple times were great experiences, but when I ordered aero kit decals, it took about 6 weeks. And when it came, they were not exactly what I wanted. I made sure I explained clearly and even provided a picture with what I wanted (stock aero kit decals, but with white background instead of brushed aluminum). My fault for not complaining about it right away, but I wouldn't have to complain if it was right in the first place.
Despite this, I'd order from them again. They and Lyle (Vinyl Styles) have gooooooood stuff!!
