Here are the pre- and post-bonnet stripes shots on my new MINI Clubman!

Ohhhh... it's cold outside... But they seem to be sticking just fine.

The finished product - very reminiscent of the MINI, I think! Can't wait to tow my classic behind this thing in May!

Its a counterfeit MINI, but really it does look pretty sharp.

Checkered roof?

Actually they are Jake Stripes (named for my MINI)!



I had Mike create these for Jake (hence the name). Nice variation on the theme AZblackOUT! Looks good!

My thought is Herbie the Love Bug. After checking your screen name, most definitely!

That would look even cooler on an all PW MINI, with all the 53 circles.

Herbie was one of my heros when I was a kid.

Thought I'd add my roof spolier graphic even though it's not really a stripe

Hey, Blimey, that photo with your door open that shows off your ultra-glossy shine... the stripes don't show up in that pic ? I haven't seen it in a while and the winter has me longing for shiny MINIs. (going to check your gallery to see if it's in there).

Nah, no stripes there... but since you asked... hope it makes you feel better. (it's in my blog if you ever need a fix)

That's the one, Blimey ! Sweet.

I looked at the 173 pics in your gallery but it wasn't there. Never thought to check your blog. I bet if I venture in there I'll find all *sorts* of things I never thought of... next thing I know, I'm spending another couple thousand bucks on mods. Do I dare ?

Thanks! They were supposed to be a change from green to silver, but as you can c some other colors made it in the mix. i like your uj grill and eyes ( might have to steal the eye idea tho). Also, what kind of gauges are those in your gallery?

When we ordered my wife's car she wanted something different so we ordered these from AC and took them to the dealer to have them installed when her car came in. However they forgot about them and when we picked up the car they had the black sport stripes on it instead ! To make a long story short they compensated us for the mistake. I still have the stripes but I'm on the fence on how they would look on a PW. Just looking for opinions.
