Need JCW Emblem photo.....

I just got my JCW cab back from the body shop and the JCW emblems that were on the door sill are missing. Does anyone have a pix they can post that shows the emblem and where it's mounted on the door sills?

Thanks much!

They prolly replaced w/ oem instead of optional JCW bits.
Do a google search for "JCW Door Sills"

Well, they didn't put any on. I think they were waiting until the paint fully cures. The ones I had were small and only as big as the words "John Cooper Works". Kinda like what you've got but with the John Cooper Works part cut out. The rest of the door sill was clean.

I may have to visit Mini parts but in the meantime, I'm hoping someone here will have the pix of what I'm looking for.

Thanks!

That....actually does not sound like an OEM MINI part. If it was in the area of the kick plate at the bottom of the doorway opening it would have been a full length vinyl plate like a huge domed decal, black with silver and JCW logo in the middle.

Maybe it was an aftermarket decal from eBay or something ?

Actually, as I can recall, it looked like the long factory JCW sill plate but with the John Cooper Works logo cut out of it. I sure as hell wish I'd taken a photo of it before I dropped the car off. It was plain and simple. Just the JCW logo.

Oh, and I should add that my car has the factory aero kit so there are no long depressions in the sill for the long sill plate. So, what I'm looking for is just the thin, adhesive backed JCW logo.

I have the same kit. It really insnt possible to cut the decal out of the 3D domed kick plate.

It is most likely an aftermarket decal from eBay, Maybe from Acromann.com in China. He has some good decals but takes about 3-4 weeks to ship from there.




If it was a domed style decal, I would contact Mike at Aesthetic Creations. Could have been one of his.

Thanks, all, for your suggestions. I feel a bit old and wonky now. I checked with the previous owner as I was thinking more and more that I really didn't have an emblem there and sure enough, the previous owner confirmed it. So, sorry for the trouble.

Cheers!
