Kudos TO AESTHETIC CREATIONS

Bought a set of their air bag sticker cover ups ( I hate those yellow stickers--remind me of the fare lists in taxi cabs). Looks great . A few design choices available. BUT, and most important..
OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM INCREDIBLY NICE PEOPLE...

Good to hear. We too had a great experience with Mike. Can you share pictures with us of what your stickers look like and say?

I have those too. Along with a couple items put on by Mike at MITM2.

He was busy all weekend and stayed late on Friday night to finish up my pre-ordered work.

So, +10 to Aesthetic Creations and the work Mike does for all of us. Mike posing with his great work on scooter.

Good to hear! I didn't know they had stickers to cover up the airbag warning. Very nice!

I have the chrome MINI wings visor stickers. I love them - a cheap & easy mod!

these are the MINI WINGS design. The have a MINI w/ red S design and I think a plain red S design. The flash washed out the sharpness a little but they look great.Its a shiny black background with silver wings. They run $15. plus $2. postage. Well worth it to me especially with anthracite headliner.

I like the MINI Wings sticker.

Is there any issue with selling a car and having the warnings covered? Can the stickers be removed?

easy to remove, peel right off. The yellow warning is embedded so it stays behind it

NICE. Still considering the blackout ones to help the red S pop a bit more off the CR body. If Mike was standing next to me to install em, it would be a done deal.

Mr. Alphabet Soup was being facetious. Mike doesn't have 9 college-age kids. His daughter is a very sweet and smart young lady, though. And I do have a good idea where CR&PW&JB's money went.

That's cool that the UJ decal is one piece. When I did one on my classic the damn thing was in 400 pieces and the flag wasn't even correct. Sheesh - you'd think that 'cause Rover was selling it they would make it correctly.

Okay, I don't have pics of all of Mike's work he's done for me, but here's some of them.

Boot stripes:


Wheel Center Caps:



Door Sill Plates:


Warning Label Covers:



Gas Cap Decal:


Checkered Roof Graphic:



Love Bug:



More Wheel Center Caps:



Headrest Bling:



More Warning Label Covers:



And some stuff for the MSCSa that I haven't installed yet.

And Mike can have some more kids and rest assured their futures are bright because I'm not done yet !

I think the black would fit my car better. I'm not fond of the original chrome.

Yeah, Mike sent me a pic of his new CR R56. I forget what my exact words were, but it was something like, "So, seeing how that is half mine, I expect custody on weekends and every other Thursday".

Mike installed it, he was done in 5 minutes per side, so anyone could do it. Of course he made it look very very easy. He used a detailing brush handle for the press in tool, it had a triangle type tip.

He makes them in various flavors for the 07 MCS. After he did the rear window, it was obvious I needed an accent on the side, low pressure salesman.

You know, you could come and get some more stuff put on because Mike is coming to MD in October for the DCMM event, that he has not posted about yet.......

I am going to do the same. CR body drowns out the red "S". Black will make it stand out a bit.
