if you wait it out, you could invest in the silver cooper v stripe that was issued on the checkmate MINI's. it's really nice. i'll try and find a picture out if to upload and you show you.

I went out to autozone and bought a roll of their auto stripes. I got something like 25 or 30 feet for maybe 15 bucks and it came out pretty well.

thanks, that and tinting the windows was a good little project with my dad
the stripes were literally the easiest thing though, and like i said maybe 20 buck at autozone and we didn't even use half the roll. good luck
