Some added side bling

They're a little expensive, but I knew I'd get them sooner or later. Picked up some Union Jack side scuttles for my Cooper S. The installation instructions are all in German, but at least it was easy. Five minutes tops in an over-hot garage.

Thanks!

I'm waiting for my registration to expire so I can get a custom plate. It's going to be awesome

Those union jacks look perfect on your car's color combo! Where'd you get the scuttles from?

I was going to order online to save a bit of money, but while I was waiting for my car's knee panel to get fixed at the dealership, I went ahead and bought them there. Mostly surprised that they had the UJ's in stock.

Happy July 4th btw... How much did the dealer set you back for the scuttles?

Nice!

It would look sweet with matching mirror caps and roof flag, but where does it stop?

Looks nice, but being part Irish, it just seems wrong to consider any union jack bits.
(good thing MINIs are German now. )
