My '03 Cooper [MINILVR] is silk green with a white roof and sunroof, white wheels and mirrors. The sunroof has a perforated Welsh Dragon decal from MightyStripes, before Matt quit handling them. I tried installing "old school" side stripes but they tore during the application, so only "COOPER" remains on each side, in white reflective. I have the ClearBra on the front end and mirrors and shields on all the lights and fogs. The headlights have a winged MINI decal on each one that says, "MINI", and are supposed to be reflective at night, even with the headlights "on". My most unique sticker says, "I drive a MINI. What are you compensating for?" Since my ancestry is Welsh, I LOVE the dragon motif; therefore, my decals are mostly dragon-oriented, and are pretty well scattered all over the car.

With a break in some light rain, and TiVo to pause the football game, I went out to snap a few photos...

Both the Italia (rear) and CA (pass side) decals are reflective, which is nice. The schools on the driver side are Cal Berkeley (my undergrad - "go bears!"), San Jose St Univ (my grad school), Duke Univ (my favorite private univ), and the Air Force Academy (my favorite service academy). I love college sports!

I had the twisty road one specially made - I live in a canyon . It's a bit too big though. I hope to have a smaller one made soon though...

Ahhh....Fall in Michigan I found this awesome tree today and took some better photos (including my new sig):













OT...I'm using a Canon A75 on auto. Any suggestions on how to get the hot spots from washing out the subtleties nearby? It was a very overcast day without flash.

I tell ya. With ideas, your always reading my mind, mirrors, this, etc. Problem is I don't have the money to make it happen. Great looking car. I thought of putting the BMW stripes one the spoiler as you have done and on one of the bonnet stripes. Always a fun time looking at your ideas.

Twister, is that stripe straight or curved?

Twister, your bonnet stripe looks great. Is it straight or curved?

In the first picture, it looks curved, but in the other pictures, it looks straight.

Is it an optical illusion due to the down-curved bonnet and actually straight? Or is it actually curved?
