Bonnet stripes

I noticed a stripe pattern that I want for my clubman. It's a wide center band with a thin band on either side. I think it was posted by Robin Cassidy. How can I find out where to purchase these stripes? Cheers, Jeff

The Consumer info section on our site has numerous stripe sources that may help.

I hate to put a company on blast. But Aesthetic creations stripes just don't look very OEM. I have ordered two different sets of rear black stripes with the white pin stripe and they just look rinky dink. They don't match at all. I really don't know what the owner is doing to make the stripes. The original stripes Mini gives you that are two tone are actually two pieces of vinyl. In my case they put a smaller black stripe on top of a wider white stripe to give it that look. The ones from Aesthetic creations seem to be one piece of vinyl and it just doesn't look good. I refuse to put it on my car. I have argued with the owner several times and he swears that it is just like OEM but its just not. To me it looks like they some how paint the color on top of a white stripe. It just looks taky. When I get my mini out of the shop I will post pics of the OEM and the set I got from Aesthetic creations so you guys can see what i am talking about.
