Here is some pics of Max. boot and bonnett stripes were done at dealer when I p/u in May. They did the sidestripes in August. They have a great stripe guy who can do about anything you want. I have more photos in the countryman photos thread.

I love this. Where did you get the red stripes from? My dealer only has black or white as a choice.

Thanks all! Not sure if the question is for me or not, but had a heck of a time sourcing what I have had in mind for design for the past 5 months.

Check out Lyle @ vinylstyles.com. I worked with him to tell him what I wanted based on some bad photoshopping I did, and he made it happen. Had to find my own installer since the dealer wouldn't have anything to do with it since it wasn't pre-masked (i.e. each element is its own piece). I think he's also listed in the vendor section since he's a NAM supporter.

The Rocket Scientist will launch me in orbit for doing this, but here goes. About a week ago I posted these pics and had no idea of Rktcyntst's design until he responded with pictures of his twin!

We ordered our stripes from Graham at MINI Graphics in the UK. They were able to custom make the color combo and the thin side stripe. A great quality product from across the pond.

Beautiful. You read my mind. I want to get the same exact thing but with matte black instead of gloss black on my all black All4. I may have to reach out to Graham as well!

How did you get them installed? I really don't want to attempt it myself, I'll likely screw it up....

Graham suggested that the installer have experience installing commercial vehicle "wraps", since this is the type of material MINIGraphics uses for their stock material. My dealer located someone who fit the requirements and they did it for me.

About $100 for the stripes, side stripes, and shipping via air from the UK. About $350 for the installer. Not cheap, but it's custom and done right.

If you need MINIGraphics (Graham's) phone number, PM me.

Guess I'll add ours to the thread, we installed these 'subtle' Green stripes over the holidays. It was quite a transformation from basic black.

Did you paint the brake ducts yourself or have them done? If you did them yourself, did they come out easy? I want to paint mine white also.

They really stand out. Looks great!

I painted them myself with white Plasti-Dip just in case I didn't like them I could peel it off. But I love the way they look. I think it ties everything up and it gives a finished look to the lower grill. The come out really easy, I used nylon kitchen scrapers (http://s2.thisnext.com/media/largest...n/ABD99772.jpg) to release the clips that hold them in. You need 2 of those scrapers, one for the side (inner, closest to the lower grill) and one for the top of the brake duct. you stick them in between the brake duct and the bezel around it and then just pull/wiggle and they come out.

I think there's a thread here that shows how to remove them, if you can't find it let me know if you need pics of the brake duct so that you can see where the clips are located.

What? No posts since Feb 2012...and we're into June 2012. Has this thread gotten lost in the shuffle? Anyone else out there with stripes?

Got striped today. This was basically a test to see if I could do it myself and it's not perfect, but I'm happy with it for right now. I'll be attempting it again in the near future but probably won't go with the flat black again.

The one on the right seems too close to the MINI badge.Also these stripes are not oblique as the originals.
