Pics of my new Rear Spoiler Graphic! I lied!!!. Apologies to...

Hey Guys, I have to admit only a few weeks ago I posted a thread saying I had finished all my exterior mods and posted pics: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...33#post1565433 and wouldn't you know it I just couldn't resist this slick rear spoiler checkered flag graphic! So here's my sincere apologies to:

paynemdMINI
tigwantstoplay (called it!)
70spop
onasled
billie morini
TwistySister ( you got me)

Hope you like this last addition I really like how it's designed to look like a flowing flag!











Had to throw this one in as it's also my new sig pic!

Love the spoiler! I see checkered mirror covers and handles next!

By the way, I still haven't painted my calipers, but, I've added a Checkered Whalen **** and an M7 STB. Oh, those aren't exterior mods.

Its a great look

I also found one at www.minibeotch.com at $28 plus shipping. Has anyone had any experience with this group? It is priced under the e-bay item, but you might get what you pay for???

That is really cute and unique, I like that it is just on the spoiler and not the whole roof

i am confused.
why did you get the checkered spoiler graphic when you have the union jack rear view mirrow?
looks good but i would have liked to see it matched.

Hmm interesting the only difference I can see is mine is a flowing flag the outside black checkers are stretched where as the one from the above link is not, worth the extra $$$$? To me it was but.............

Thanks I'm trying to stay away from the norm, be little different yet not freaky!

Actually I have 3 emblems ( 1 each side under the side vents and 1 rear under the cooper S logo) on the car that have both the union Jack and the checkered flag so I felt this tied in nicely but not too overdone more like ..........................Ovrezee!!!

Looks like the same one I found on e-bay.
Fit was a bit funky, had to cut it into 3 pieces to get it to line up. No big problem,though.

I tried to account for the curve in the MCS spoiler but I suppose it might throw a few people off.
But still, I have had very few complaints overall.

I haven't put these on ebay in a while but Ovrezee has given me permission to use his photos and I have reduced the price now.
