I think I would have stopped with just the checkerboard, a definate "eye catcher" though

Love the tints !

Does the slanted checker pattern become a basket weave at the back of the car? In general it's clever and it's dynamic. Not sure about the oversized flying MINI logos though. Reminds me of those interlocking Cs on Chanel bags. Perhaps some thing could to be left to the imagination. Even without the flying logos the car should attract a lot of attention. With them it looks as though you've been paid to advertise--a mobile billboard. Is this why the material is called decalcomania?

Second. It's a very cool look, but the big logo is too much.

checkers look good. "sporty" I also like the grey hood scoop.
I am curious to see what it looks like from the rear.
Personally, I could do without the wings...

Looks good with the checkers. Where did you get the graphics? I just ordered my '06 MC CR/B (from Flow) and want to get some unusual bonnet stripes. Was thinking about magnetic, but understand that the vinyl is relatively easy to change.
