MINI Cooper Stripes: Bonnet, Boot, Bumper.

Ok, I saw someone with this setup on another site but he never got back to me on where he got the stripes. Does anyone else know? I have the bonnet already, I'm looking for boot and bumper ones. Also, I don't have the cooper on the boot anymore, so the stripes would have to be solid without the gap.

Thanx!

I am looking to stripe my bonnet. I have looked at literally hundreds of different types, but I keep coming back to these. I think those look great! What is the width of those on yours?

Archie,

Those are the best bonnet stripes I've seen yet.

BTW, are the decals permanent? I'm wondering as to whether they could be removed later if I ever sell the car or return it at end of lease.

yeah, they could be easily removed like factory stripes. More than anything, i keep from leaving them in the sun so it wont leave ghost stripes at the end of their tenure.

And i'll try an get a width for you catseye, if you still need it.

Thanks for the reply. As much as anything, the wife doesn't like tinkering with the looks as it came from the factory. I have other ideas...

You should be able to go to any good sign shop. They should have no problem making your stripes any size, shape, color or even colors. There are soo many options avail. including metallics and color changing. So they should have no problem helping with your requirements.

Aesthetic Creations has all the bonnet, boot, side, roof graphics you'll ever need for your mini. It's a wicked cool site and they have lots and lots of images of each graphic they sell. They also make custom graphics.

Enjoy!
