Opinions on my photoshop door stripe
A few days ago I saw a stripe on a door I liked. I tried to replicate it as best as possible. Anyways, I am not sold on the idea of putting this on my car but am looking for opinions. The photoshop work is not perfect.

IMHO - looks good but do not split the S on the door opening.

This reminds me of something the Honda crowd would do.

I agree. I would put the S after the door.

I agree as well, clear the door.

It doesn't look too bad...but I'd leave the car as is before putting the sticker on.

Graphics are too big. Don't like it.

Gotta agree: looks a little "ricey". But then again, the last time I liked stripes/graphics on a car was in 1969 on an AC Cobra I drove...

Is it just me...or does your MINI look really short. Graphics look cool, but before I do things like that I ask myself...self, does this stripe bring anything to the party?

oooh, I can't wait until I see a Honda with "COOPER S" on the side - that'd be great.

C'mon! everyone knows you go with vertical stripes for a slimming effect
Since you asked for opinions, I would pocket the money and save it towards someday painting the arches/trim.

I think it looks best on cars with aerokit or painted trim 'cause you don't have a thick black stripe over wide black trim
