Hey Every1,

I just wanted 2 know who has ordered these for their MINI and if u have pics. I just ordered a set from Aesthetic Creations 4 Scoopie, but would like 2 see what other styles folks bought.

Thanks!

 

Here's Butters!


I created these in MSPaint & printed them on stickyback-plastic Cheap mods FTW!
(Please excuse the dirty bay...it's much cleaner now)
Definetly post picts when you get yours installed. I like seeing what others have too.

Edit: I tried to attach the word document with Butters' eyes incase anyone wanted to use them...the document was already used in the post linked below, so I can't repost the Doc. It's located in post #7 if anyone wants them.

Those look great!!! I'm getting the ones like yours, smurfette, only in purple. I'm sooo excited!

not4no1: Those are awesome!!! U created those yourself? I'm sooo jealous of folks w/artistic talent ... . Have u offered 2 do them 4 others?

 

Here is Reddigo's eyes

 

Got these awhile back

 

Some edgier styles were produced by Rogue MINI. The remaining stock is available here: http://www.motoringalliance.com/index.php?page=store

A couple of examples...



Some available with or without bloodshot:

 

Thank you

I have only done the one color & style. I tried to make them user friendly. You should be able to copy the image out of the word document (link in above post)& Paste it into MSPaint or a more option laden photo editing program, then match your paint color.

I just used MSPaint & played with the color options until I found a match for LY.

Since I don't have the avalibility of other color MINIs, it would be hard for me to match your MINI's color...but I would if I could

 

+ ... every1's eyes look sooo cool!

Bein' a girl 'n all, I'm partial 2 the ones w/eyelashes

rkw: I've seen those b4 ... u're right, they are edgier

iceckid: U have the bloodshot ones! Kewl!

not4no1: That is verrrrry cool ... I have some leftover paint and could play around w/photoshop 'til I got a close match ... are they removable if u wanna change your style?


I'm curious 2 know if u've had people open your bonnet and notice them ... any reactions?

 

I have purple ones like in post #8. I'm in Haiti right now, so it's hard for me to post pics. Nice choice on color Violet!!!

 

Here's mine:

 

I chose mine because they were "girlier" and my Smurfette is definitely a girl!

People have noticed when the hood is up. I was having a battery issue and the guy at the auto shop got a real kick out of them!

 

Hey! Kudos on your color choice, as well! HUUUUGE KUDOS 4 helping out in Haiti, 2!

AKInd: What's w/guys and the bloodshot eyes, hmmm? Kewl!

Smurfette: + on the girly front! I kinda figured folks would enjoy seeing them! 2nd gens definitely lose out on that score!

 

 

Very nice, JPMM! Is your MINI's name Frankie?

 

love those eyes... maybe i shoudl get one

 

I just ordered mine for $10! Can't beat that runnin' or jumpin'! Unless, of course, u're talented like no4no1 over there ...

I guess it would help to post the link: http://www.aestheticreations.net/vin...icstickers.htm.

 

Actually, had the same eyes been available w/o being bloodshot, I would have preferred those. I'm quite impressed with the detail level with the eyes I got.

 

They do look very detailed (saw them on the AC site close-up)--just awesome! I can't wait 4 mine 2 arrive! They're just peel 'n stick, right? Of course, being careful of air bubbles and the like ...

 

Yup, just clean the surface thoroughly, peel and stick.

 

Yup, the AC eyes are pretty much peel and stick. Of course I cleaned off where they were to be applied really good (washed, towel dried and then a little isoprophyl alcohol, air dry and then apply eyes). I think all AC products come with really good directions, at least mine did!

 

Excellent! I never thought about applying alcohol--gr8 idea! Thanks, guys!

Quick off-topic question: has any1 ever cleaned under their bonnet? If so, is it really OK 2 just spray water in there? I've never done it on ANY of my past cars (obviously) and am reallly leery about doing it on Scoopie. If u have, what did u use and what was the process?

 

It's best to do on a warm day when the car can dry out better. If you have a cold air intake or an air filter that is exposed, then you want to cover this up with a plastic bag. Stay away from spraying too much water around the electrical components. It's a pain, but I find myself covering the alternator with a plastic bag as well. I usually spray down parts with some simple green or equivalent, let it sit for a few minutes, and then spray it down. There are certain areas I hit hard with water, and others I try to avoid. The radiator and a/c condensor I hit pretty hard along with alot of the plastic areas like where your eye decals go. The top of the engine, I try to do with a rag and cleaner. After it's all done, I usually leave the bonnet up and let it sit. Stay away from pressure washers with really high psi levels.

 

I'm extremely surprised at this, but I really don't have any pictures of my engine bay post-eyes! Here they are on Roger though :P
