After having to wait for three weeks after my car´s last visit to the dealer, I finally had time to install the Union Jack decal. It looks really good and was lucky enough to get professional help installing it


BTW: I want to thank everyone with the help explaining me how install it.

I´ll try to link them but dont promise it will work (they are on Member MINIs section, pictures 4607 to 4609 the last page)

MiniMexico, have you checked out Cooper Flags? I'm not sure if they can ship to Mexico, but they do carry a range of flags and designs pre-cut for MINIs with sunroofs.

Thanks a lot Coopchick!,; those guys of cooperflags have a lot of cool designs, I wonder they 've no problem shipping to Mexico.

I'm gonna ask them if they can print a design on static vinyl in order to put the decal on my sunroof and remove it when I want

Thanks everybody for the good comments

Minimexico, they guy that installed my decal has a print shop and a small business dedicated to printing and installing decals (outdoor advertising, signs, etc.)

I can give you his contact info, maybe he can do a design for you (he told me he uses the same material the expensive BMW decal is made of)

Only problem is that he is in Puebla, I just happened to be lucky enough that he was in Mexico City that day

thanks man! , I do appreciate your concern!, but I've just bought (from cooperaccesories) a Union Jack made out of static cling vinyl and it covers only the sunroof; so I can put it on and off at will. oh! and it was really unexpensive (55 bucks) they don't ship to Mexico, but anyway I'm going to Austin next week.

it looks like this:

MiniMexico!

I just received my sunroof UJ decal yesterday! Since it came rolled up in a tube, I've unrolled it and placed objects on each corner to smooth and straighten it out before installing, per YuccaPatrol's recommendation. I cannot wait to install the UJ on my all-Jet Black MCS!!!! Pix to follow after installation!! YAY!!

Please post pics of the car. Never seen a black roofed car with the UJ. I bet it looks very bold
