Just got a new JCW Mini Convertible

This is my new ride...


I'm ready to add some stripes. I'm looking to add sport stripes - parallel up the middle. I'm thinking about red, but white and black are also options. Anybody have an opinion on how this will look on Rebel Green?

Congratulations on the sweet new ride, and welcome to the forum.
I like black stripes with red accents for your color combo.

Welcome to NAM.

Top down in a JCW, not too much better.

I agree. Black with red pin stripes would look nice

My car is actually Rebel Green. This is the style strip I am considering...



This is on a Countryman. Would like the red mirror covers as well.

I've got the red stripes and mirrors (and roof of course) on my green JCW Clubman and I love that combo.

How long from date of first ordering and actual delivery to your dealer?

I did not have to order the car. It was sitting on the showroom floor. I had gone to trade in our 2014 Mini Roadster and was test driving an 'S' model. I inquired about the JCW and he mentioned they had one upstairs on the floor. I took a look and fell in love.

I decided to go with red sport stripes, but they are being shipped from Germany - it's going to take a couple of weeks for them to arrive. I will post pics when they are installed.

In my opinion, it looks more classy with no stripes but it is a question of personal taste.

Moi aussi. I have never had stripes on any of my six MINI’s.

When the Lotus Elise was first offered in 2005, one of the color combo's
was a British Racing Green, with Red Interior, which paid tribute to the
Lotus heritage. You can't get a more British color combo than that.
