Boot Stripes

I finally took the plunge after Zippy's minor altercation with an unknown assailant in a deli parking lot, and went for the boot stripes to match the bonnet.
They are OEM white with the black pinstripe, and i took the old "Cooper" badge off, and reinstalled a new one partially over the stripe.
I really did not like the idea of cutting the stripe around the badge.

Nice. Looks very 'clean', design wise.

Looks great!! I did mine the same way - didn't want to cut the stripes.

Thanks Donna,

I actually took inspiration from you!
I believe you posted a photo relative to your stripes sometime in the past, and I thought that was the way to go. If not, I seem to recall a post you submitted detailing the fact that you placed the Cooper logo over the stripes.
(If it wasn't you, then I apologize to who ever it was!)
Regards,
Carl

Sorry Donna...It was a post directly after yours that showed a photo of the Cooper badge over the stripes.

It was posted by ddminikc.

They looked great and were the catalyst for my decision.
