Doing a little front grill graphic experiment. What do you guys/gals think, classy, cheesy, too much?

I noticed the pic on the roof rack thread and thought it was one of the most original and clever graphics yet! Great Job and welcome to NAM!

Unique and original, can't say I'd do that to my car though.

wifesmini,
Aloha and welcome to NAM,

I think it looks fine. Maybe I've been looking at MINIs on NAM too long.
The horizontal and vertical red stripes are fine but the diagonals are not as clear to see.
I liked how you used the small strip of the top of the front bumper into the flag design! Cool.

I hope that's not your wife's mini!
Maybe she is British and doesn't mind.

Very cool idea! Looks nice. I agree with Minihune about the diagnonals, but otherwise it's a great look!

I agree with this. Looks good but not for me.

I will say you must have spent a lot of time getting things line up. Good job.

I LIKE IT!

Probably wouldn't do it myself (already have a sunroof flag) but I think it's a neat idea. Looks like it would require a lot of patience to get everything lined up.
