I have no idea how many tattoos i have currently, one day they will all jsut be one. But I am very tempted to try and incorporate a MINI into my work. All of my tattoo's are celtic and well the logo on it's own jsut does not quite fit.
As for those who where looking for an artist... make sure they are clean look at not only pictures of there work but make sure that they have some pictures of HEALED work stuff a few years down the line and how well it holds up!!

I get my MINI on Thursday!!!! Black S with check roof... and i found checked bonnet stripes heh SKA Mobile in Action!... now if I was only really into SKA

Where did you find the checked stripes. I'm looking to get them on my LY/B S. I thought about the B/W checked thing too. When the family was discussing what color to get it came down to "yellow cab" or ska mobile.

We will have the yellow check roof pattern available soon for sunroof and flat roofed MINI's. We have the basic Black/White check patterns today, but will offer many other checkered color patterns. DS/D, DS/W, CR/W, CR/B, LY/W, LY/B -I think you get the idea.

We are taking orders and shipping now for all the flat roof designs that are shown at http://www.cooperflags.com. We will have our sunroof applications ready to ship within the next few weeks.

I've got 2 MINI tattoos that were part of a promo package sent when I ordered my MCS. Of the non-permanant nature though. Even though I say I'll never give up my MINI, I'd never get a tattoo of the logo on me. I've said that about 2 cars now, and I sold them both. Kinda like girlfriends. Good thing I never went through with 'inkin' their name into me.
As for decals on my MCS, I've got the words "The Little Engine that CAN" on the lower rear windshield. Thinking of where I could put the words "I speed up for corners".
Cheers,

I would be a big fan of a MINI temporary tatoo, as I am scared of needles and thankful that I never got that Vanilla Ice tatoo that I wanted so badly at one time!

L.Mini, you gotta show me the tats sometime. . .

GOT MINI?

Go to your local asian food mart, buy some henna, and go for it!

A self crafted HENNA TATTOO will last a week or two and they are fun to apply.

Let the TATTOOING BEGIN....

I want to give Hermione a tatoo of the "Super S" logo in my sig. I don't know where yet, but I'm going to keep it small. I might also give her a small Union Jack somwhere. It looks so cool on IB/W MINIs.

I live in Bellevue, Wa. and have seen some interesting ways of making the cooper a billboard. Microsoft used one to promote its X-Box with a Project Gotham Racing theme. It is sitting at NorthwestMini last I checked. I imagine that Mini's will get the same treatment that VW Beetles and Hummers do as promotional cars for local radio stations and the likes...

I did a custom design (by me) side stripe. It can viewed on page 6 of members MINI's under Mike Brinson's Cooper S. Check it out. I've received some positive feedback. No tatoo's though. Tally ho, Mike Brinson

HAs anyone put a tatoo on their MINI?
I would love to see someone paint more than just the aches.
What about some flames, or some wild paint scheme down the side?
I was debating on going with phantom flames on the hood.
Now I am thinking of going withthe phantom flames on the roof.
HAs anyone really used stickers yet.....more than just a logo?

I believe that Xbox Mini was one of the 2002 Gumball Mini's.
