I made these for the Silver car and I can make them for you as well.

Check them out on the website.

Bottom of the page. For bumpers just add another set of Bonnet stripes.

Stipes are looking nice

Thanks!

These are my custom stripes by Aestheticreations. Mike created them for Jake, my MINI, so you need to go here and order "Jake Stripes".

The boot stripes are here.

If you tell Mike about Jake/Red Scooter, he'll remember the sunroof graphic.

They say "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery". I must say, I am quite flattered.

Be sure to send/post pics when you get them. Yours should be the only other MINI that has these stripes (other than Jake of course).

Thanks Red! Jake is a hottie ;-)

I trying to picture chrome stripes on El Toro.. not sure it will look as good as it does on yours, what do you think?
http://www.zaragozatoros.com/MyMini/torito.htm
If there are only 2 of us with these stripes, we may as well be the only ones, unlikely anyone would ever see both of us in the same place!

someone suggested blk stripes with chrome trim ..yours is the closest to an example of it that I've found.

One other question, how difficult are these to put on and take off if I decided to remove them? I've never done anything like this before.

Really like the NFR! El Toro will look nice with some stripes. Since he has a chrome grille, chrome accents in stripes would look great. I like good contrast though. What about ALL chrome?

If you have an idea of a stripe, Mike at Aestheticreations.net will create them for you. That's how the "Jake Stripes" were born.

You could also ask him to create a mock-up to see how they might look on El Toro.

Have you browsed his site? LOTS of pictures - be sure to check the gallery!

I didn't install them. Mike did. But a lot of folks do their own. There's lots of DIY stuff here and on the internet. They are basically like a bumper sticker (but better). So, if you don't like them/want to change, you just peel them off!

Time to motor. LMK if you have more questions!

thanks.. yes i was just looking through everything on his site. And coincidentally, I saw the all chrome stripes and thought they would look better than blk and chrome. I'll see if he can do a mock up to see if I like the way it looks.

I want to get some nice wheels, but I'll have to wait for that, maybe a xmas gift to self. Any recommendations there?

Check out the Tires, Wheels and Brakes thread here. As usual, LOTS of info, pics and NAM'ers that will have good advice and input. There's a "Show Us Your Wheels" thread, too!

Glad you like those stripes. So far they are still one of a kind

I agree. I haven't seen many spaced stripes, so that makes us that much more unique.

I thought I was still the only one with roof stripes lining up with the factory bonnet stripes!
